Prichard Elementary

The goal of our garden is to provide an interactive learning experience for our students. We would like to expand our current garden to include a green house and learning lab. This would provide our students with year round learning experiences. Our current garden is small, but the students have thoroughly enjoyed participating in the planting and harvesting of the crops. With a larger garden, we would be able to provide more fruits and vegetables for our students to sample and take home. Our county will also allow us to use the harvest in the cafeteria. Last year, we were able to work with a local high school and build a chicken coop. We currently have 14 chickens and are anxiously awaiting the first egg! Our garden is located beside the coop. We would also like to add compost bins to our garden to teach the students about this process.
