The Green Heart Project

Posted by Nicole Lennox on

This Holiday season, we are supporting the Green Heart Project - A Charleston, SC based non-profit who builds garden-based experiential learning projects and school garden programs to educate students and cultivate community through growing, eating, and celebrating food. For the month of December, customers will have the option to donate to this organization when checking out on yolohayoga.com. On December 3rd, Yoloha will match all donations made for Giving Tuesday. 

The Green Heart Project’s Farm to School programs utilize school gardens & urban farms as vehicles for teaching – connecting students to food, health, culture & the environment. The garden serves as an outdoor learning laboratory, perfect for reiterating classroom curricula with a focus on STEAM standards through applied learning experiences. Additionally, students are connected with fresh, locally-grown fruits & vegetables as they participate in the growing, harvesting, and cooking processes. Through these hands-on, outdoor learning experiences students learn our core value of respect, and practice essential social-emotional learning (SEL) skills while working alongside volunteers, their “Green Heart Buddies” in both the garden & kitchen classroom.
