About the Program: 

The All Saints' Organic Garden is a cross-curricular outdoor classroom that provides each grade with the opportunity to learn about the interconnections of nature and help each student find their place in the natural world. 

Planning and caring for the garden provides children with the  basic knowledge they need to become stewards of a living system that needs their care. 

In turn, this teaches them that they can have an impact on the natural world through their actions. Curriculum from The Edible Schoolyard and Life Lab Science Program is incorporated into the program as is nutrition, cooking and eco-literacy. 

Students from Preschool through 8th Grade participate in garden activities throughout the year.
