Blanche Sprentz

Our goal is to make the garden a living classroom that will benefit all the students and families at Blanche Sprentz School. This grant will allow us to add work spaces, tables and seating for the students. It will also get us started on a comprehensive composting program that will save us money on soil amendments and help us recycle in the cafeteria. We want to grow life long gardeners and healthy eaters. Students learn in many ways and one of the most successful and fulfilling is when they work hands on and take charge of their own environment. The success of the garden not only builds school pride but helps us build community.
