Our school garden is used by some teachers in classrooms.  We also have an after school 4-H garden club.

CAISL Edible Schoolyard

The mission of CAISL´s Edible School yard is to bring community members together to engage in the multitude of academic, social, physical and emotional benefits a garden provides to both the earth and its citizens. Lessons in science, geography, math, reading, writing, cooking, art, nutrition and the value of eating locally grown seasonal food, free of pesticides will result in an authentic experience for all that promotes eco- literacy and environmental stewardship.
