About the Program: 

With the help of this grant an expanded garden could serve as a place that all (not just part) of the children could work and learn about how to grow food sustainably. Our goal is for the garden to help connect students with the larger community. By involving members of garden associations parents and master gardeners the students would learn from experienced gardeners and then carry on the work themselves. The garden will show children and their parents how useful growing food can be.
