Sponsored by Bon Secours Richmond Health System

About Noah’s Children

Noah’s Children is Central Virginia’s only pediatric palliative care and hospice program. They serve infants, children and adolescents with serious illnesses and support their families.

At this time, they are able to care for all children who need hospice or palliative care without charging, thanks in part to donor support and the support of the Bon Secours Richmond Health System, which pays for administrative costs. The event will help raise money for this important cause – and  you will enjoy FREE appetizers (and we mean DELICIOUS!), discounted wines, and unbelievably awesome door prizes! RSVP on our Facebook page.

About Tricycle Gardens

Tricycle Gardens is a grassroots, environmental nonprofit organization focused on bringing agriculture, nutrition education and healthy food access to the urban core of Richmond, Virginia.  Founded in 2002 by three architects living in Church Hill who believed community gardens, and the simple act of growing food, were the fastest ways to transform the overall health of their community – both for the residents and the environment.

The goal of Tricycle Gardens is to transform abandoned, overgrown urban lots into sources of food and opportunities for economic development in low income neighborhoods.  Starting with a group of friends and neighbors planting one community garden on a vacant lot owned by The Better Housing Coalition; Tricycle Gardens has grown into four community gardens, three learning gardens, a green house at Bryan Park, a ½-acre urban farm and a 3,000 sq ft edible forest garden at the Science Museum of Virginia.
