About the Program: 

Morningside Elementary's raised beds and a greenhouse make it possible to grow and harvest produce all year. Students usually make salads in order to sample their harvest. If we had a small mobile kitchen students could learn new and healthy ways to cook and eat (or drink) different crops. This learning tool would also give the children an opportunity for weighing measuring following multi-step instructions and working as a team while learning a lifelong skill.
