About the Program:
Our primary goal is educational. We want our children to learn about nutrition and plant life cycles. We also want them to learn about organic gardening. They will learn that gardening is a great way to be self-reliant and a cost-effective way to eat healthfully. Our students will learn responsibility by caring for the garden. We will share the food we grow with our students and their families. Families in the community will also get to share their expertise by helping care for the garden.
