Teen Leadership Corps at Awbury Arboretum

We've been busy this summer at TLC. 13 teens, and various assorted part-time staff, summer interns, adult volunteers and #foodmoxie are supporting these youth to plant, harvest, organize our kitchen, cook delicious farm fresh low on the food chain meals, eat together and, of course, play!

Review of my book "Green Jobs Philly" By Nelly Ulima "Do you remember watching Rocky as a kid? Do you remember how you felt when it was all over? Inspired, righ...t? That is exactly how I felt after reading Paul’s book, Green Jobs in Philly. Yes, like climbing those 72 steps at the Philadelphia Museum of Art I do not have a green thumb, pinky, or toe and until a few months ago, I had never even heard of a Green Job. "My favorite part of this book (besides pretty photos and lots of bullets) is that he explains rather unique concepts surrounding money and still makes complete and total sense to the reader. Green jobs in Philly teaches us a REAL way to save OUR world. "You are captured from the beginning sentence and it become increasingly evident that Paul is an expert in his field. He is utterly inspiring as a writer. As you read, you feel a lot of sincerity, like you are exclusively being the one spoken to. You will finish this and want to read more, know more, and do more. In my opinion, this book was a dream, a dictionary, an escape, an epiphany, and the future!! Buy it!" http://www.lulu.com//green-job/ebook/product-12469090.html #greenjobs Philadelphia Regional Alternative Solutions Green Party of Pennsylvania Supporters & Members Green Party of the United States Issues & Discussion Group Lackawanna County Greens Group Green Party of Philadelphia Chester County Green Party Green Party of Dauphin CountyLancaster County Green Party Susquehanna Valley Region Green Party Supporters and Members Penn State Green Party Green Party of Allegheny County Montgomery County Green Party Chester County Green Party
