Two urban gardening projects in Indianapolis are growing much more than fruits and vegetables.

In addition to bringing fresh produce to neighborhoods where it is often scarce, the small nonprofits are training local youth to not just grow a garden, but a better community.

Soul Food Project Indy and Felege Hiywot Center both train inner-city youth by providing a hands-on urban farming experience. The two organizations also helps them develop skills to become active community members.
