About the Program: 

Our goal is to build and maintain a vegetable garden at Allison Park Elementary that will serve multiple roles in our community:
I. The garden will introduce young children and their families to the joy and excitement of growing food.
II. The garden will be a hands-on laboratory for learning about science, the
environment, and nutrition for both children and adults.
III. The garden will serve as an educational model for other Washington County communities.
IV. Ultimately the garden will be a point of pride for our community
