The intention of this session is to highlight various community-based organizations who are leading while supporting immigrant and refugee community members through cultural expression in gardening as well as how community gardens or other activities that support and sustain intergenerational wellness and connection.

Community gardens flourish as a space for individuals, and families to socially connect while learning intergenerational skills as it relates to growing produce but also sustaining culture while building preserving family unity. The session will hear from various community leaders about how their organizations participate in Collective Community Healing and Sustainability, why it is relevant to the immigrant and refugee community members, strategies to achieve this philosophy and how we should be approaching cross collaboration.
