Nutrition & Garden

In Fresno, many kids don’t have access to green space or fresh produce.

Nearly 1 in 4 residents in Fresno County is food insecure (Feeding America, 2023). These conditions affect student health, behavior, and academic performance.

ENP’s Nutrition & Garden Program exists to address those realities.
