About the Program:
Our goal is to incorporate gardening and fresh produce year-round for our school community. Currently, we participate in the Garden to Cafeteria program with Denver Public Schools. We have been able to harvest fresh vegetables for our cafeteria over a two to three month period, but would love to continue involving the students in healthy, school-grown produce through the entirety of the school year. We recently had a green house donated by a community partner and are very excited to use this resource to meet our goals.
