Do you want to provide healthier food for your family and help fight the child obesity epidemic?  Then take a ‘Step Up To Health” with ‘Families Growing Together’ - a year-long gardening program for 20 Putnam families with children.

This program will provide an opportunity to learn to plan a vegetable garden, grow vegetables from seed, nurture your plants – and your family – and harvest your crops at their best.  Your children (5 and up) will have fun learning too.  There will be games and activities, hands-on science experiments and kid-friendly recipes your children can prepare.

How does the program work? Each family will be given their own 20′ x 20′ garden plot for a year in the Tilly Foster Farm Community Garden in Brewster, NY.  Every month starting October 20th, the families will learn something new about growing food and eating healthier. The program is designed to work with nature’s calendar: preparing the garden in the fall, learning about plants in winter, and then taking advantage of the beautiful spring sun to start growing your crops.  And while the group will meet only once a month, the garden can be tended to as often as you like!

What do you get when your family joins Families Growing Together? As one of the 20 Putnam County families to sign on for this program, you will be part of a new adventure and receive:  A family garden plot for the year at the Tilly Foster Farm Community Garden in Brewster, Monthly classes, Organic gardening information, Kid-friendly science learning, Fun activity books for the kids, Nutrition lessons and cooking demonstrations, Lessons in starting from seed, transplanting, weeding and organic pest controls, Harvesting tips, Regular advice from Master Gardener volunteers
