๐ฑ Exciting News from Thrive CIL! ๐ฑ
We are thrilled to announce that Thrive CIL has been selected as a Phase 1 winner of the Administration for Community Living's (ACL) Cultivating Connected Communities Challenge!
Our project, Rooted in Independence, will focus on creating an accessible, inclusive, year-round hydroponic garden in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Our vision is to create a space where people of all abilities can come together to grow fresh food, learn new skills, build connections, and experience the benefits of gardening without barriers.
While we're planting our first roots in Harrisburg, our long-term goal is to expand Rooted in Independence throughout all of Thrive CIL's service areas.
๐ฟ Growing food. Building community. Cultivating independence.
