Rhode Island School for the Deaf Community Garden

 Rhode Island School for the Deaf is a small program for Deaf and Hard of Hearing students. We are a pre-kindergarten through high school program. We are so fortunate to have a beautiful organic garden on our property. The students designed and fabricated all 17 4 x 4 square foot gardens. The teachers use the garden for academic purposes in literacy, vocabulary development, math and science. Some students use the garden to learn how to follow directions and make healthy meals from the garden produce.

Food, Culture and Community

This program is in its infancy.

Further information follows as the program unfolds.

Ames School Gardens Project

 

We coordinate two school garden programs in the Ames Community School District in Ames, Iowa.  Working with many community partners and volunteers, we provide hands-on garden, cooking and nutrition education programs in and out of school.  All garden projects are also community-based, and food goes to families in the wider community as well as students and their families.

Douglas HS Plant Science

We are starting a Plant Science class with the intent to spend half of the instruction time in the classroom and half outside in the greenhouses and former agriculture education area.  I would like to plant a gleening garden for our low-income community.  We would like to provide food for others as well as volunteer opportunities for our students.
