Sacramento Kings, Raley's Create ROOT Community Garden Program to Encourage Healthy Eating and Sustainable Living

Sacramento, Calif. — Today, the Sacramento Kings Foundation and Raley’s announced a new partnership creating a new garden program that will serve communities stretching from the Central Valley to Northern Nevada. Through six ROOT community gardens, the Kings and Raley’s will connect young adults, families, and non-profits that assist thousands with fresh, locally sourced produce while also growing the next generation of healthy eaters.

This weekend with the help of the Reno Bighorns, the first garden will break ground this weekend in Reno, Nevada. Northern California Construction Training is providing garden boxes, planter beds and more will be installed at each site.
