Boulevard kids join other campers at Truly Living Well
From the post:
There are four weeks of summer sessions of the camp, which is held at Truly Living Well’s Wheat Street Garden location in historic Old Fourth Ward. Campers spend mornings learning about urban farming, escape the heat (or rain) with arts and drama projects in the classrooms at Wheat Street Baptist church, and learn about healthy eating, agricultural entrepreneurism, sustainability, and other aspects of “what it means to truly live well,” says camp coordinator Amakiasu Ford. There’s a good deal of hands-on activity; campers said they especially loved visiting the chickens, checking out the worm bin, and helping to bundle Greek oregano. […]
This summer, scholarships for the camp (which runs $365 a week) were raised by TEDx Atlanta and designated for kids in the Village of Bedford Pines on Boulevard. About half the campers in the group were Boulevard residents.
