Growing Home is the lucky nonprofit that receives 10¢ for every bag that is reused while shopping at Chicago area Whole Foods Markets until December 31st.

Our job training program for formerly incarcerated and homeless individuals stands to make up to $20,000 through this campaign. We will use this money to pay our program participants wages, create opportunities for healthy fun with our neighbors in Englewood, and purchase seeds and other farm supplies for the 2012 growing season.

Thank you Whole Foods! And thank you to everyone who recycles, reuses, and brings their own bag when they shop at Whole Foods!
