West Melbourne School For Science

At WMSS we offer gardening on the activity wheel.  Students receive gardening and nutrition lessons weekly.  We let 4-6 grade students choose their activity on Mondays and Tuesday's for extra gardening.  In the program, we plant seasonal vegetables and harvest when ready.  We give harvest to staff to make salads, salsa, smoothies and other healthy snacks for students and staff to enjoy.  We plan to extend out to our community in the near future through farmers markets where WMSS student gardeners supply the produce.
