About the Program: 

Our goal is to start and maintain a garden that will give our Upper Campus students (3rd grade and up) hands-on experience with the many aspects of a garden ecosystem. Our plan is to create curricular connections as in this application. Our students have little opportunity to experience nature and more specifically the relationship between the environment plants food and health. We hope to eventually provide our cafeteria with fresh produce from our own garden.
