About the Program:
Our goal is to expand! We need to increase in size the variety of foods and the number of gardens. We live in a rural low income/high poverty community (2/3 of the students receives free/reduced lunch benefits). Due to the expense our student body does not have access to fresh fruits and vegetables on a regular basis. This garden will provide the students with the knowledge of planting harvesting and preserving foods. This information can be shared with families to plant a home garden!
