Urban Roots Reno Urban Teaching Farm
Urban Roots is a Reno based non-profit that strives to change the way kids and entire communities eat and learn through garden-based education. Urban Roots has programs for everyone, every ability, and every garden-related interest. From building school gardens to nutrition workshops, Urban Roots is working to connect our community to the food they eat.
