Pittsburgh Manchester K8 School

612 Manhattan Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15233

Organized by GrowingTogetherFarm.com and OMAPittsburgh.org / Contact: Lisa Freeman (412) 290-9294

The first of four community-based conversations facilitated by OMAPittsburgh.org

Two community-based organizations are coming together to do
something BIG – build community, inspire change and give back.
Please join us for the first of four community-based conversations facilitated by OMAPittsburgh.org. These conversations are designed to interrupt the normalization of trauma in schools, homes and communities and to create space where healing can occur. The theme of the first community conversation in Manchester is “Unity in the Community: We Are Not Alone”.

Manchester Growing Together Garden/Farm is pleased to host the first “Unity in the Community: We Are Not Alone” conversation.

Manchester Growing Together Garden/Farm is on a mission to work together in the soil to create opportunities to feed families, strengthen community relationships, consume healthy food while making better lifestyle choices and feeling empowered by positive change. In addition, the group is rooted in addressing social injustice, food insecurity and building community.
