Our goal for our garden is to provide an interactive outdoor green space that our students, teachers and community partners can learn and develop gardening skills. We would like to develop an outdoor classroom into our green space as well. Teachers will be able to incorporate curriculum based learning that they can teach in the outdoor classroom space. Students will be given a plot each that they can use with their families to grow their own produce. There will also be a general gardening space that will be managed in a communal way.

The goal of the ODB Community Garden is to educate students about various plant life cycles and to increase awareness of the benefits gained by healthy eating habits. First, it will be a positive, continual binding force for our community. We have many celebrations that occur throughout the year that relate to academics, but very few opportunities for parents, staff members, community members and students to interact together and/or learn as a community. Secondly, our garden will help students learn about what it takes to grow food.
