About the Program: 

Here at Dreyfoos we see the potential of school gardens extending past merely producing food. Amongst high schoolers it will instill an appreciation for the process of plot-to-plate and encourage healthy eating habits and stewardship for the environment despite the urban surroundings. It will unite students across ages art majors and across the school district in a way that teaches skills and makes connections that will last a lifetime.
