About the Program: 

Currently we have a small urban plot in West Los Angeles, with several raised beds. We have been growing vegetables, herbs, and berries, led by our fearless parent leaders, affectionately referred to as Farmer Bob and Farmer Christine. Mr. Nevins leads a eco-conscious classroom to the plot twice weekly, where the students rake, clean, weed, plant, and fight over strawberries and radishes. 

 

It's fantastic!
