T
he Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC), Department of Parks and
Recreation, Prince George’s County offers a comprehensive approach to achieving your health and wellness goals this spring. We’ve made it our priority to improve the wellbeing of our residents by providing a diverse range of innovative programs that are designed to keep the community healthy and active all season long.
‘Planting a Seed that will Last a Lifetime’ is M-NCPPC’s youth gardening initiative and philosophy around healthy eating and getting outdoors. Youth gardening is tied to the Kids’ Care program at select community centers and some summer camps throughout the county. Teaching kids how to garden, where their food comes from, and letting them taste what they have grown puts them on the path to healthier eating.
Youth Gardening
Community Garden Plots Another program that focuses on proper nutrition and physical activity is the community garden plot program, ‘Bringing Food and Communities Together.’ Our garden plots provide a place to grow your own fresh produce, share knowledge and learn from other gardeners. Since 2012, M-NCPPC has created 90 available garden plots at four different sites throughout the county. For details and to learn more about permitting a garden plot, visit www.pgparks.com > Rentals & Permits > Community Garden Plots.
Farmers Markets Just a few years ago, finding a farmers market in Prince George’s County would have been difficult. Now with over 20 markets in the County, residents have access to locally grown produce and other delicious food grown on over 1, 300 acres of parkland. The Department partners with groups whose primary focus is on urban agriculture and providing greater food access to residents. You may view a full list of our partnering farmers markets by visiting www.pgparks. com/page34754.aspx. For more information, please contact the Sports, Health & Wellness Division at 301-446-6800; TTY 301-446-6802.
Make a Splash Program The Department of Parks and Recreation offers FREE water safety and swim lessons to Prince George’s County youth. It’s all possible through USA Swimming Foundation’s “Make a Splash” initiative, which partners with grassroots learn-to-swim programs to promote drowning prevention and teach youth safety in, on, and around the water. The program is available during the school year (for second graders only) and also during the summer (for ages 6-17). Whether or not you plan to head to the pool, water is all around us - in rivers, lakes,
Winter has come and gone and now spring is upon us. With the weather getting nicer, we hope you’ll make the time to get outdoors and connect with your natural surroundings. After all, studies have shown that being in a natural, outdoor environment is great for your health! Our community garden plot program, farmers

Resident Registration and Fees The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission policy gives priority to Prince George’s County residents during program and class enrollment; it also increases registration fees by approximately 20 percent for non-residents, or those living outside Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties. This procedure ensures that the citizens who fund these programs through their tax dollars have the first option to enroll. After the priority registration period, registrations are accepted from residents of all jurisdictions. The fee schedule applies to all Commission programs and facilities in Prince George’s County, with a few exceptions such as performance tickets and historic site admission fees. *NOTE: Full payment is due at registration unless a class or program has a scheduled payment structure i.e. Kids’ Care, Trips & Excursions. Need help? E-mail the Park and Planning Help Desk at help4smartlink@pgparks.com
