About the Program: 

The Garden Goal is to share a new and environmental friendly experience with the students. Many, if not most of the student's attending the school live in aprtment units. They typically do not have much "green" to see. Our goal is to provide a completely different setting for students to learn in. the garden will allow the students to have positive and therapuetic experience wathching plants and food grow. The fun part and the expectation being to eat the food and take it how to parents and guardians. Students will also take some of the grown food to the local church that has a food bank-it is a part of our building! We hope that students will feel proud that they produced food to give to people less fortunate in the community and learned thier owm lessons while doing so.
