In San Diego County’s Solana Beach—at the Boys & Girls Club branch named after its visionary mentor, Barbara Harper—–children are learning to grow, cook and eat foods made with organic veggies, herbs and fruits.

The following video is an overview of the property and features an interview with horticultural designer Katie Pelisek and Barbara Harper.
