M. E. Foster Elementary School

Our goals are to enhance the school curriculum and empower the community in ways that will improve their overall health. We'll integrate garden concepts into the usual curriculum to stimulate learning. Also the community has a number of threats to morbidity and mortality that may be attributed to lifestyle. The garden may reverse these threats by providing a source for fresh foods and creating a health-conscious social network. The garden will also provide a safe option for physical activity.
