About the Program: 

Our goal through this garden is to foster independence in our special education students. With this garden they can apply and generalize the academic skills they have learned in class. This will help them become contributing members of our community. Moreover the exposure to teamwork learning how to grow plants managing money as they sell what they harvest and learning to make healthy choices as they learn to cook with the harvested vegetables will equip them with invaluable life skills.
