About the Program: 

We would like to enlarge our organic garden and use the produce for some staff and/or student lunches. We would also like to have a cooking class for students, using produce from our garden. We would also like to be able to donate some of the harvest to a local food pantry. We hope to start a composting area, where students could study soil and composting. The students also use the garden as an outdoor classroom, for a variety of activities.
