Byrne Creek Secondary School

The main overarching goal of Byrne Creeks Healthy H.E.A.R.T Garden is to create a multicultural urban garden project that educates community and youth about the nutritional, cultural and environmental aspects of growing and eating food. Our long-term goals include growing in a variety of ways to be financially self-sustaining with a social enterprise that includes a Harvest Box Program, farmers market sales and more.
To access the garden, students may take part in the Club, the Individual Directed Study for credit, or through a class. Management of the garden will be by student leaders mentored throughout the project. The garden will be a joint venture between Byrne Creek students, staff and parents (grandparents) and The World in a Garden a Vancouver, BC based non-for profit.
