Alamo School Teaching Garden

 Through a grant we applied for last year provided by Alliance for a Healthier Generation, we are in the planning stages of a terraced Teaching Garden at the elementary school. 

We have worked closely with our school district facilities dept. to enlist their services to repair the existing irrigation system, as well as remove all existing vegetation, lay weed retardant and bark prior to the beginning of construction and planting.

We have planned a Day on the Green for August, 2012 prior to the start of the school year. A groundbreaking ceremony for the garden, as well as rock and tile painting projects for the children will be a part of the day. Our Wastebuster Team will do a presentation on composting and our new recylcing program.
