About the Program: 

Our garden goal is to involve the kids from K-5 to grow healthy herbs and vegetables in the limited outdoor spaces in the school which is not currently used. By involving in a garden project our children will experience the satisfaction of planting a seed and the wonderment of seeing the fruits of their labor at an early age. The children will also have the pleasure of beautifying the school. This will promote to develop healthy eating habits in the students and thereby enhance the community.
