About the Program:
The goals of the Montessori school's gardening program are to introduce children to the fresh fruits and vegetables grown in our garden and incorporate this produce into the snacks and meals served at the preschool. We hope to increase the children's nutritional awareness and options for healthy eating. A school gardening program will help us meet a goal of serving fresh local produce at every meal and teach children about where their food comes from.
