Haddon Heights Elementary School Garden Program

Our school garden is ran by teacher, teacher's aides, and parent/community volunteers. We grow produce and flowers for use in the Food Lab Program. 

Our Food Lab Program prepares school lunch everyday of the year with help of 5th-6th grade students. Food Lab students plan and prepare our school lunch. It is a truly unique program.

Whiting Lane Elementary School Living Classroom

My school in Connecticut consists of prekindergarten through fifth grade students. The prekindergarten is geared for working with children who have special needs. Our K through five classes include the integration of students with autism, special needs and language differences. My goal, as school librarian, is to bring these different groups together through events promoting environmental literacy. At this time, each grade level is in charge of growing the flowers, vegetables and herbs in their own 4 x 8 foot raised bed.  Their gardens reflect what they are learning in the classrooms.

The Starvin' Marvin program was initiated through a community desire to compost school lunch scraps. From this a garden was grown. Produce from the garden is used in the school cafeteria. In addition, in the fall of 2013 we are piloting a new program "Garden Gate to School Plate", to bring more local produce into the school cafeteria.
