About the Program:
The goal of our garden is to unite our community while feeding needy children in our school. We have approximately 75 students who are given food over the weekend. This food is pre-packaged and donated by a local church. It is the hope and desire of our staff to provide fresh fruit and vegetable along with donated food to keep our children not just fed, but fed healthy foods. This grant will make it possible for all of our children to experience the joy of gardening and the benefits of growing your own food across the lifetime.
