In The News
Nebraska Extension and Community Crops are two of the organizations in Lincoln that are making it easier for people to access and grow fresh produce in our community.
Partnership for a Healthy Lincoln received a Patrick Leahy Farm to School grant to expand their preschool nutrition education program. The popular and successful program lets kids taste test and develop a life-long appreciation for fresh produce from local farmers while they learn about nutrition.
Studies find that living near or spending time in parks and green spaces is increasingly beneficial to our overall well-being. Over the past 6 years, Partnership for a Healthy Lincoln has collaborated with Lincoln Parks and Recreation, and community sponsors to harness the power of parks to improve neighborhood health in 3 Lincoln neighborhoods. The most recent project, completed in 2023, is in University Places' UPCO Park where new free outdoor fitness stations were installed.
