Park Avenue School/Community Garden

The Park Avenue School/Community Garden was built by the families in our school community.  We now have 9 raised beds as well as Woolly Pockets hanging on our fence.  We grow a variety of vegetables-- lettuces,carrots, spinach, radishes, cucumbers, kale, swiss chard, garlic, potatoes, herbs and more.  The children are involved in all aspects of gardening from planting the seeds to harvesting the vegetables.  We have supplied our school cafeteria with produce and during the summer months families volunteer to take care of the garden. We have also been able to donate fresh vegetables to local food pantries.
