About the Program: 

We will use this grant to expand students' access to gardening by creating 2 new raised beds: an herb garden and a salsa garden. This experience will help bring hands-on learning into the classroom through a new cooking and nutrition education program. By teaching gardening skills in the outdoors cooking skills in the kitchen and nutritional knowledge in the classroom we will empower our students with a truly seed to fork education that will build their knowledge skills and wellness.
