Roseland Creek Elementary

The goal of our garden is to provide nutrition, science, and community education for 450 kindergarten through sixth grade low-income and English Language learning students.Teachers may find that the garden can provide space for other disciplines as well, such as math, history, or art. The main goals are listed here:
1. The garden will demonstrate to children how a project is first established, and then how it grows into a working entity that takes dedication and care from them in order to reap its benefits.
The garden location will connect students to the natural surrounding habitat of their brand new school campus, literally bridging their education with the real world. It will bring them closer to the native (and not so native) plants and wildlife that boarders their school, while planting, nurturing and harvesting local plants and even food.
2. The garden will also provide opportunities for the school community to reach out to it̢
