PS 133 William A. Butler School

Our school is under construction, when our school opens in 2013 we will need to move our garden from our current temporary location. All of our plants are in portable planters, which will be easy to transport and also addresses the problem of the soil in our vicinity being contaminated.

Maintaining and developing the garden into an outdoor classroom is our primary goal. The grant would be used to do both. The irrigation system will ensure our garden in it's final location will remain vibrant. The garden shed and furniture will allow us to expand our garden-based school curriculum. Furthermore, the furniture will allow us to broaden our offerings at our community events: festivals, market days and workshops. With more seating and displays we will be able to offer more demonstrations and activities.
