green visions is a two-part community-based program based on a vision for a more vibrant and flourishing rochester. It is a workforce development program and phytoremediation project in the city of rochesters josana neighborhood. Together with neighbors, we install and cultivate flourishing gardens of flowers on once-vacant and decaying lots. The flowers from these lots, once in bloom, are harvested, bouqueted and then sold at various locations across the city by the program participants over the entire summer and early fall. In addition to a daily wage, the profits from sales are split evenly between program enrollees. A major goal of the program is to remediate and improve the quality of the soil on our lots, through implementation of sustainable gardening techniques.
