| Summary, etc |
The author speaks with 90 youth gardeners participating in twelve different programs across the country, with the goal of understanding how working in the garden at their school, community center, or non-profit organization affects teens' mental and physical health as well as their attitudes, job prospects, and hopes for the future. The result is inspirational!<br/>(Miller Library Staff) |

| Summary, etc |
Growing a Life demonstrates just how influential school and community gardening programs can be for adolescents. Readers follow author Illène Pevec as she travels from rural Colorado to inner New York City, and from agrarian New Mexico to urban Oakland, California, to study remarkable youth gardening programs for at-risk teens. Expressive candid interviews with more than eighty students, substantiated by relevant neuroscience research and a framework of positive psychology, explain the life-altering physical and emotional benefits of gardening. As students share their experiences tending the soil and the plants, feeding their families and their communities, and guiding younger children, readers are given the opportunity to examine the largely unexplored topic of mentored urban gardening. Growing a Life will inspire educators, community leaders, and youth to team up and establish community gardens where they do not already exist and to involve youth in existing gardens.--AMAZON. |
