Myriea,

Chicago Community Gardeners Association is a network of community gardeners including school and church gardens. Our organization's leadership is composed of working groups that meet regularly to support community gardens through education and networking events as well as providing material resources. CCGA helps to find solutions to common challenges such as leadership transitions, access to water and land, and community organizing.  The Education committee is one of those working groups offering workshops that are informative and educational.

Our subscribers are already actively engaged in seeding, planting, and harvesting their own food..  We don't see any opportunity for Meridian Health insurance to participate with us .  You are welcome to submit your event on our website calendar at http://chicagocommunitygardens.org/events/

Best,
Lorraine Kells, Co-chair,
CCGA Education Committee

Hello,

I hope this email finds you well, I’m a Community Relations Coordinator for MeridianHealth, one of the Medicaid managed care plans for beneficiaries of the Illinois HealthChoice program. Our community relations department works to develop relationships with organizations to build community coalitions and promote health awareness and managed care in the communities that we serve.

I’m reaching out to learn more about the Education Committee through CCGA and the work that you do for the community. Currently, I’m working on a virtual event that will allow community members to learn various topics on health and wellness including urban gardening . We’d like to provide a short 15 minute demo on how they can grow their own produce at home to help them live healthier lives. I’d appreciate the opportunity to share more information about this event in the case you may have an organization in your network that would be interested in participating.
