This month we want to highlight one of our Equity Partners, Latino Center of the Midlands. LCM is a community organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of the Heartland Latino community through their extensive programs and services. In 2019, Heartland B-cycle began a partnership with LCM to disperse free annual memberships to those they serve through our Equity Program. We are so happy to work with the incredible folks at LCM and looking forward to when we can have an in person sign up event again!
LCM's new project, Siembra Salud, or Grow Wellness, is an at-home gardening and health initiative that uses gardening as a catalyst to address comprehensive health and social needs. Trained staff address and improve access to affordable produce in the southeast Omaha community. They also provide education and training for families and community members to build, grow, and maintain their own culturally appropriate home gardens.
