About the Program: 

The Whole Kids garden grant will allow Asbell Elementary to expand a small existing garden area and give more children a positive gardening and healthy eating experience. The garden expansion will include building additional raised beds installing a rainwater cistern and planting berry bushes. Students will learn about sustainable growing methods and build an outdoor learning area that can be used for many years. Students plan to donate additional produce to a local homeless shelter.
