Rooted in Community Intern Project

The goal of this project was to increase awareness of the University of Arizona Community Garden, foster community engagement, and evaluate the impact of time spent in the garden on attendees' moods. During Spring 2026, the interns planned and hosted a three-part event series: Art in the Garden (February), Cultivating Calm (March), and the Earth Day Garden Party (April). Each event included interactive activities, guest speakers, and guided tours of the community garden. The interns also collected participant feedback to assess changes in mood and evaluate the project's impact.
