About the Program: 

Our goal this year is to enhance our gardens to provide food for community food banks and to feed students in our school cafeteria. We plant and harvest vegetables year round; however, we want to increase our offerings by planting a strawberry bed, blueberry, thornless blackberry, and raspberry bushes; and several fruit trees. The Whole Foods grant will be used to fund this portion of our gardens.
