Green Exercise Days

“The true purpose of recreation should be not merely to amuse, not merely to afford pleasure, not merely to ‘kill time,’ but to increase our fitness, enhance our usefulness, spur achievement. Any form of recreation that impairs either our physical or mental efficiency does not recreate. Real recreation quickens aspiration.”  -Bertie Charles Forbes

Concrete Safaris offers corporate sponsorship opportunities during which employees mentor school children in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio for a full day of outdoor fun and learning at Concrete Safaris’ Paradise Garden and Mad Fun Farm, our 14,000+ sq. ft. space in East Harlem.  Our after school program participants have the opportunity to bring their classes to install a portion of their garden and farm plans, while gaining skills as healthy community leaders.  They also get to learn about possible careers, reinforcing the importance of staying in school and caring for the world.  If you or your company would like to sponsor a Green Exercise Day, please email us through our contact page.
