Global launch of Muhammad Ali Peace Gardens

The Greatest of all Time was a big hit at Louisville's JFK Montessori School Tuesday morning.  Muhammad Ali and the Ali Center announced the global launch of the Muhammad Ali Peace Gardens.

It's an effort to teach children how to build gardens as a way to learn more about respect for diverse cultures and nutrition.  The students enjoyed their time with Ali, as they shared their stories and showed off their own garden.

Greg Roberts of the Muhammad Ali Center explained, "What a wonderful opportunity that we have now that Muhammad Ali Peace Gardens will be all over the world, and that the kids here started it.  So when we talk about Louisville as a Possibility City, it is possible, and that it all started here, and it started with you."

Yum Brands and Whole Foods are partners in making the project a success.
