chiloquin school garden project

Chiloquin Elementry School is a small rural town in the Klamath basin of southern Oregon. we are 30 miles away from any grocery stores and orgainc produce. The school garden project was formed because there is a great need for food security here. We have started composting saving 15 to 17 gallons of food a day from the garbage and sink disposal as well as established 2 acres at the school to use for growing food and planting native plants . We are said to live in one of the poorest counties in Oregon.  Chiloquin is the homelands of the Klamath tribal peoples.
