About the Program: 

Bell has always wanted a vegetable garden to bring students and the community in touch with how the production of food and the environment are interconnected. The garden will provide an outdoor classroom and teaching tool to help our community: 1) understand in a tangible ways seasons affect vegetable growth; 2)learn the importance of taking care of the earth by showing how clean soil water and air help grow our food; and 3)stimulate a curiosity in different nutritious foods and healthy eating.
