Deb Yandala, CEO, Conservancy for Cuyahoga Valley National Park

“Learning lessons in an urban garden during a pandemic?  Love it!  When school doors were closed, our little ones and their parents were thrust into a conundrum of what to do next.  The YDH IDEA pod was perfect!  It provided a COVID Safe response learning space at the Bumper Crop Urban Farm that excited the kid’s curiosity; inspired social interaction; STEM learning, and hands-on education in gardening from sow to harvest all while stimulating their creativity and I am so happy to have been involved as a nature educator.  I can’t wait to see what’s next for the pod students!”
