City Growers Education Conference

Photos © Valery Rizzo

This past Saturday I photographed The City Growers Education Conference held at PS 20 in Clinton Hill Brooklyn, bringing together urban farm educators. I actually attended PS 20 as a child for first and second grades, so it was interesting to go back. You can see the entire shoot on my website here.
