Last weekend, our team at the Davis Street Garfield Child Development Center took a garden tour around San Leandro with Tandi Farms, including a special stop at our very own on site garden! 🌿🥕🌻

We explored the beautiful, edible gardens Tandi has planted throughout the community and learned more about the impact of growing fresh, local food in shared spaces.

Huge thank you to Tandi Farms for your partnership and for helping us create meaningful connections between nature, nutrition, and learning. We’re proud to have one of your gardens right here at Davis Street! 🌱💚
