Stein Learning Gardens at St. Sabina

Stein Learning Gardens at St. Sabina (SLG), established in 2018, is an urban farming and food systems project at St. Sabina Church in the Auburn-Gresham neighborhood of Chicago.

·      Mission: Stein Learning Gardens is committed to delivering high quality garden education and community programs that create positive learning experiences, encourage healthy lifestyle choices, and increase community members’ access to fresh and affordable healthy produce.

·      Programs: SLG provides garden, cooking, and nutrition education programming to school-aged children, high school youth, families and seniors. Our programs lead participants from seed to plate in urban gardens on the St. Sabina campus and in both on and off campus work to support families growing food at home via the citywide Grow Your Groceries campaign. In addition to providing  these programs, SLG pivoted during the COVID-19 pandemic and now provides low/no-cost produce to area families.
