Ramah Navajo Heart Saver Project Year 4 Meeting 1 November 14, 2007

Ramah Navajo Heart Saver Project To Abq. To Flagstaff

Gardening Project Designed as component of our less- intensive community-based activities. Evolved to include a number of patients taking part in the intensive clinic-based activities.

Gardening Project Historically, Navajos grew fields of corn, beans and squash. At Ramah Navajo, some families now have gardens, and cornfields are few. Water for irrigation is in short supply.

Gardening Project Goals: Encourage family physical activity through gardening. Increase availability and consumption of fresh produce. Help families become more self- sufficient.
