GARDENING PROGRAM
The Community Action Agency of TCRCC Gardening Program provides plants and seeds to help families grow their own food. Families participating in the program plant and harvest their own fresh vegetables, reducing their overall food cost and, in some cases, generate additional income from the sale of the produce. To ensure greater success. CAATCRCC provides instruction to program participants on proper horticulture procedures.
