Welcome to The Radical Root, where we explore the intersection of radical gardening, sustainable agriculture, and community empowerment. I'm your host for today, Jason Skipton, and in today's episode, we're thrilled to have Romanet Leiva, Partnership Coordinator at the Providence Milwaukie Garden of Giving, joining us. This episode is bilingual, so stay tuned for English and Spanish insights into our conversation. Today, we delve into the Home Gardens program, discussing why we started a learning garden in partnership with Providence and the impact of community health education. We explore the concept of gardening as a health intervention, especially in medical settings, and how hospitals are integrating gardening and fresh food into their treatment plans. We also touch on how this idea is gaining traction in the community and how the project has grown over time. Our partnership with the Providence teaching kitchen has been integral to our success, and we discuss creative ways we're encouraging public health at the Garden of Giving. Join us as we dig deep into the roots of health and community empowerment. *¡Bienvenidos a The Radical Root!
