About the Program: 

Our goal is to educate our children and parents in healthy living by providing learning opportunities in the gardens and student kitchen. Our theory is if they have ownership in the planting care giving harvesting preparing and cooking of fresh produce they will broaden their pallet for healthy foods. Because of our focus we have been able to tap into our local master gardeners hospital and university for community experts for advice and volunteers in creating our learning areas.
