El Paso Academy Outdoor Classroom & Community Garden

El Paso Academy is developing an Outdoor Classroom & Community Garden to give our students and their families an opportunity to connect with their food source and each other.  We are currently working on developing an infrastructure to facilitate growing sustainably in a desert climate.  This includes rain-water harvesting, drip lines for irrigation and of course, lots of shade! 

This is a great group at The Edible Schoolyard Project and we are excited to share our pictures, stories, successes and challenges along the way.
