About the Program: 

The community of Sandspit consists of approximately 250 people. The school is an integral part of the community and many community members have helped to volunteer with the construction and maintenance of the garden. The garden and greenhouse are an integral part of the school community and are greatly supported by the community. We would love to be able to upgrade our current garden site. We are hoping to extend the current size of the garden and repair the plastic that has been damaged. As well, we are looking to purchase plants and seeds that can be grown in our garden area. We would also like to purchase gardening tools that can be stored at the school to be used in the garden and greenhouse.
