About the Program: 

Our goals are to expand the educational value of the garden by installing signs identifying various plants and flowers; build a three-bin compost system to teach children about the process of decomposition and give us the ability to improve the quality of the soil without having to purchase compost regularly; buy growing lights to enable classes to start seedlings indoors; and replenish our supply of tools and garden supplies making it easier for students and volunteers to work in the gardens.
