The Children’s Coalition

The Children’s Coalition, located in the heart of downtown Monroe, hosted an awards ceremony to honor all of the hard and selfless employees and volunteers that help make the Children’s Coalition what it is today. Along with the awards ceremony was a preview of the new family garden. This garden includes 32 raised-beds, a sound garden, bubbling rock and a mud kitchen. The Children’s Coalition works in conjunction with LSU Ag, Northeast Louisiana Master Gardeners and 4H Leaders and students in Northeast Louisiana to promote healthy eating by connecting children and families to the food they eat. Volunteers ensure the garden continues to grow.
