The model of using local produce to create a product like this while supporting the gardens that grow the peppers is one that many of our volunteers and interns are really excited about. Our garden is overseen by the Environmental and Garden Education Program Director and is maintained by volunteers and high school interns. The interns especially learn in depth the many facited benifits of a communtiy garden and also run a farm stand where they sell Bronx Hot Sauce. Being able to say some of our peppers are in the hot sauce is a real source of pride for them. . This garden is a place where people can learn, work, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. It exemplifies community growth and contribution. For more information, check out www.vancortlandt.org The garden can be foudn within our website under education programs and internship programs. .
