Gibsonburg High School

Our goal is to grow enough produce so that we have fruits and vegetables available to share with the student body. We currently only have two above ground beds, which is not enough. If we had appropriate funds, we could build more beds and in turn have more produce so that vegetables were available for students at no cost to them. Currently, we only produce enough for those students involved in the garden to take home and share with their family. We would like to extend this to ALL students! Also, the students involved in this project have a lot of interest in learning how to can and freeze! Once preserved, the produce can be shared with students year round! The students would also like to donate some fresh and canned produce to our local food pantry. This would help not only feed the hungry, but also provide them with healthy food choices.
