About the Program: 

Our goals are to enrich the students' learning experience foster healthy habits and to imporove social skills and behavior. Through the hands-on nature of gardening students will be able to see the life cycles of plants and develop some understanding of economics. Social skills and behavior will improve as they begin to develop a sense of accomplishment and self-sufficiency that somes from harvesting the fruit of their labor. We desire for our students to watch this project come alive!
