Burlington High School

Together, the Burlington School Food Project (BSFP), students, and staff are re-envisioning the campus at Burlington High School. Currently, we have 11 raised beds, 3 in-ground plots, a functioning greenhouse, and a new tool shed thanks to partnership with the Burlington High School Boosters Club (go seahorses!). In the spring we hope to both streamline our gardens and create a much larger half-acre production farm. The farm will be based on principals of permaculture, and will be developed as part of a hands-on certification course through Yestermorrow Design Build School. Most importantly, in June we will launch our district's first credit-bearing summer course called Urban Agriculture. Teenagers across all grades will be actively engaged in growing, harvesting, and preparing the fresh fruits and vegetables. The finished dishes will be featured on the school
