About the Program:
Our school has a vision of beautifying school grounds through gardening while providing child interaction and learning in the gardens. This grant will allow us to begin our efforts by creating a vegetable garden. This prototype garden will involve parents teachers and children in creating and maintaining the garden and developing a related school curriculum. A vegetable garden will create an accessible hands-on experience for the children and foster interest and energy to expand our garden.
