About the Program: 

We hope to create an outdoor classroom where students can engage in the planning, growing, maintaining and harvesting of a school garden. This will be a wonderful learning experience for students, creating a healthy and prosperous garden with a variety of plants that will be used to generate service learning projects for students. Moving forward, as we recruit parent volunteers our intention is a holistic one that will engage the entire family. Our goal is to also encourage healthy eating habits as well as help sustain the garden through a growers market.
