About the Program: 

 Glenknoll Garden Club allows the students at Glenknoll Elementary to work in an organic garden each week.  The children work in every capacity, from readying the soil, choosing the seeds, planting, weeding, harvesting and consuming their goods!  The produce that is not used for class use is donated to neighborhood families, or local charities.  

This program has allowed students who do not have a space at their own homes, to experience what it's like to grow their own food.
