Education
The long-term solution for food insecurity is individual and family self-reliance. CDT has provided English language and other classes via ISU instructors and other volunteers in the past. CDT also teams with other local organizations to meet the educational needs of the patrons.
Community Garden
The garden was developed to cultivate individual growth and self-sufficiency through community gardening and gardening education.
It is located just north of Veterans (Airport) Park at the intersection of East Airport Road and Teeples Drive.
Garden signups are under the direction of the City of Blackfoot.
