Sage Hill School

The Sage Hill Organic Garden was originally established through a combination of funding from State Farm Insurance and Savannah's Organic Ranch. Since its establishment, the Sage Hill Eco Club and Service Learning Garden Collaborative have worked to maintain the space for outreach and education for both the students at Sage Hill as well as the larger Orange County Community. The garden is primarily used for Sage Hill's Service Learning program in a private public school partnership. Over 2,000 student from schools throughout Orange County have come though the garden and engaged in activities focused on sustainability, food systems, nutrition, and science. The goal of the garden is to become a hub for students and teachers to come and learn about sustainability. The garden grant will allow Sage Hill to expand the garden to allow for the development of aquaponics, vertical gardening, educational signage, and an outdoor classroom space that will allow us to bring more schools on site.
