Karen digs in the dirt with the shovel. ANGLE ON: Karen’s paws plant a seed in the dirt. Karen waters the seeds, and a green sprout pops up out of the ground. Karen’s backyard now has a green, lush garden, including ripe tomatoes and green beans. (We can still see the tall buildings around her yard, to indicate the city is close by.) Karen walks into her garden and picks a ripe, red tomato. Karen takes a bite of her tomato and smiles. SENOR TAPIR (CONT’D) With tall buildings and houses all around, She planted lots of seeds in to the ground, She watered the seeds and wow, what do you know? Her little city garden started to grow.

Karen joins the lion and they start to dig in the dirt in that lot. Close up on Karen and the neighbor’s paws planting seeds in the ground. SeNOR TAPIR (CONT’D) Karen Washington started to wonder whether Her friends and her neighbors could work together, To grow fresh food to eat each day, That didn’t come from farms far away.
