About the Program:
Our goal for this grant is to expand our current garden's raised beds, purchase more rain barrels to water the garden and also purchase a small rototiller. We incorporate all our students from 18 months through 6th grade with the garden. The younger students help pull small weeds, water and harvest. The older students build the beds, fill with dirt, work the three bin compost, harvest the crops, prepare snacks and meals for their class and the school and go to the local food bank to donate some of the produce which plants the seeds of future philanthropy... pun intended.
