Nicole Richie, along with Amy Smart, were on hand yesterday afternoon to launch The Environmental Media Association Organic Gardens program. The launch was held at The Helen Bernstein High School and celebrated the partnership with Environmental Media Association (EMA) and LA Unified School District to bring organic gardens to Los Angeles’ public schools.
Celebrities will adopt gardens at various schools and work with the EMA and the LA school board to make sure the garden is successful – both in terms of what it grows and how it’s used as an educational tool for students. Several LA-based celebs have signed on to be ambassadors for this project, including Rosario Dawson and Lance Bass.
“We celebrate the dedication faculty members and students of LAUSD have to the environment,” EMA president Debbie Levin said. “It is vital that we continue to foster an ongoing message of education and social and environmental responsibility.”
I think this is a great program and perfect for Nicole to be involved in!
