About the Program: 

Our overarching goal is to grow healthy food for our students and the community. We want the garden to be a center of learning about nutrition, gardening, cooking, and other essential skills for building a healthy community. We want the children to have a hands-on experience planting, growing, and harvesting their own food. By doing so, students will experience the joys of gardening, be more likely to try new foods, and be of positive service to their community. We want to improve the beauty of our community and show others that beautiful gardens can be grown in the middle of the city.
