About the Program: 

Our goal is to create a community garden at our school. The plot of ground we will be using was once the location for a bike rack and is currently covered by asphalt. Our district has agreed to remove the asphalt and create a space for us to have our garden. This grant would allow us to 1) create a garden in a space that has been sitting vacant for years 2) beautify our school grounds and 3) teach students about gardening and nutrition.
