About the Program: 

Creating raised vegetable garden beds at our school is helping us to learn about ecosystems in the real world, to learn about gardening and where produce comes from, and to have fresh produce for our lunch room. It allows us to donate to the community food bank and will help to make our school grounds greener. It will also allow for future learning about composting and water conservation. We are proud of the new garden shed and rain barrels that we added this year.
