About the Program:
This grant would enable us to extend our growing season by creating cold-frames for some of our raised beds by changing the climate zone of our raised beds from 6A to 7B or 8A allowing our students to grow into the winter and to begin spring planting earlier. The grant would also allow us to create a drip irrigation system which would benefit students' time and the summer volunteers' time. Additionally the grant would help us make much needed repairs to existing beds.
