Since 2019 Local Lifestyle Garden & Arts Educational Outreach Inc has been supporting our public school staff and students, local residents and local business owners by educating and implementing knowledge and food bearing gardens to teach the importance in HEALTHY delicious food sustainability!

Our opinion has been heard during meetings of our South West Florida Food Policy Council while they began implementing disaster relief programs and SNAP cash at Local Farmers Markets.

Our future holds many things. Look for our weekly meet ups in Collier County Parks and Recreation locations where we will provide a location for local businesses and residents to culminate for

1. Weekly fun engaging in healthy holistic wellness programs and physical activities for the workout driven or relaxing atmosphere for socializing and giving those with less opportunities to thrive .

LLG&A will host family friendly activities that include a variety of ever changing activities each week. From Gardening, visual arts, music, physical activity including dance, yoga, games and marshal arts etc and we will invite food trucks to share and sell their healthy delicious eats.

Does this sound like fun?

Hope to see you in late 2026!
