The goals of the garden consist of creating an environment where students and communities can leaned and work together. The focus of the garden will be (a) educating children of how plants grow (b) knowing the importance of growing foods and vegetables, (c) having an environment where the children can have actual hands -on experience of creating and developing a successful school garden.
