NCT ID NCT06455215
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether joining a community garden can help adults in low-income areas eat more fruits and vegetables and have better access to healthy food. About 138 adults will take part in an 8-week program with gardening, cooking demos, and social activities. Researchers will compare their diets and food access to a control group that gets the program later.
