Mentoring is a crucial part of our programing here at Hollywood PAL, and when we get the opportunity to expose our youth to something they’ve yet to experience, that really changes the game! We were able to send five of our mentoring students to Amy Aquino’s residence to learn the rewarding skill of gardening! From learning the basics of different plants and how they grow, to making fresh lemonade from the literal fruits of labor, to talking about life and the growing pains that come with it. The kids gained so much from their field trip and are excited to visit Amy’s Garden again!
