Hope Blooms

Since 2008, Hope Blooms has had a measurable impact on the community of North End Halifax in food security, community confidence and inclusion, and education. Some of their programs include:

• Youth Urban Agriculture
• Culinary & Cultural Arts Programs
• Mentorship & Tutoring Program
• Changemakers
• Group Workshops
• Social Enterprise & Scholarships
• Food Boxes

Build Right Nova Scotia heard about the great work the kids of Hope Blooms were doing and wanted to get involved. So, the tradespeople of Build Right constructed a state-of-the-art greenhouse for the youth-run social enterprise. Build Right Nova Scotia contributed all of the supplies and labour for the facility. The Hope Blooms youth were very involved in the process and their ideas were incorporated into the project.

The construction of the greenhouse was captured from the very beginning; check out this time lapsed video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88xGHhi30Wg
