About the Program: 

We are in our first year of starting the garden program and have been doing everything with our students, from laying the irrigation to building the raised beds, hoop house and tool shed! We have even milled some of our wood for the tool shed and sitting areas.We have an incredible quarter acre with excellent sun exposure and access to water. We are experimenting with various organic and permaculture techniques, including vermiculture, hugelkultur, mulching, plant tea fertilizer, etc.
