Family Supportive Housing is one of 3 shelters 🏠 where our AL of San Jose volunteers offer services for our communities in need.🎗️

"Planting a Garden" 🪏🪴 is one of 4 enrichment programs that we provide to .

The attending families learn about the life cycle from seedling 🌱 to full plant 🪴by listening to a story 📖 with wonderful photos and 2 fun activities sequencing the photos.

The children excitedly plant seeds in a starter cup to keep in their home window watch the life cycle in action. 🌱-🌿-🎍

The day ends up with the children planting vegetable 🥗 and flower 🌼 plants in a large planter box. They love digging 🪏the holes, watering the plants and getting their hands dirty.

What pride they feel when watching their plants grow 🫛 and eating their products.🥗
