About the Program: 

Our school's garden will serve two functions. First we will use it to teach our students aquaponics techniques that they can use to grow food with very little water waste. These are skills they can use in real life application when they travel home to Africa to help grow food for everyone. Secondly they will be able to produce fresh vegetables that they can eat and share with their families. We are always actively trying to educate the community on how to make healthier food choices. Our school garden would be a great example of how to live a healthier lifestyle
