About the Program:
We are a residential juvenile facility with the desire to teach nutritious food choices, healthy/gourmet food preparation and hands-on planting/picking and preserving of our school greenhouse and garden. We also teach and practice entrepreneurship lessons, including growing, preparing and selling our own hot pepper jelly, salsa and pine wreaths. This is our first year to have a class entitled Farm to School and we are learning and working hard to create a viable program that will be helpful and useful to students in their future endeavors.
