“Service Learning in Health and Wellness” is a course offered by CCAPP at The City College of NY, which guides students to learn through hands-on services that address health issues in Harlem.
We've worked on making healthy snacks available in school vending machines, improved school cafeteria’s recycling, convinced local bodegas to offer healthy lunches, hosted farmers’ market, and developed a Healthy Living Guide with cancer prevention tips.

NYC Green Cart
I found a facebook page about the NYC Green Cart. This cart sells fresh fruits and vegetables and is funded by a grant from the Laurie M Tisch Illumination Fund. If we can't get a farmer's market we might be able to get a green cart on campus.

I think this is a great idea! We tried doing something like this last semester but it did not really work out. From what I recall, Community Board 9 is pro-green cart and they actually have a specific location they would like a green cart to be located. If any one knows someone interested in the green cart business, WE HAVE THE PERFECT LOCATION IN HARLEM, RIGHT BY CCNY!!! =)
