Valley Forge Educational Services

Our vegetable garden goals include enabling our students with special needs to reap the benefits from a hands-on outdoor curriculum that teaches them how to connect with the outdoor environment, complete a food garden from seed to harvest, connect with the benefits of healthier lifestyle choices and participate in a positive activity that can help others. Since its installation in the spring of 2014, the garden has been woven into many academic subject areas as well as our enrichment programs. Our longer-term goal is to improve the garden’s yield through a partnership with the Triskeles Foundation’s Food for All program, a community leader that will guide us to fulfill our interests and capacity and be able to donate food to both our students in need and community food banks.
