Giving Garden

Learning to Grow, Eat Healthy, & Give Back

At TwiddleU we are committed to helping our neighbors and those in need. That’s why we implemented the Giving Garden into our Twiddle Bugs program. Through our garden programming we teach our Twiddle Bugs and their families how to grow varieties of fruits, herbs, and vegetables pertaining to climate, soil cultivation, and harvesting. Our goal is to work toward ending food deserts and promote plant-forward diets in our communities by donating produce and creating community gardens in areas of our city that need it most.

In turn, our neurodiverse students learn the importance of community building, teamwork, and sharing with others. We aim to ensure all of our families are educated on healthy food options and have access to free and healthy food choices.
