About the Program:
The goal of the gardens project at our two high schools is to make students more aware of their environment and the impact food and environment has on our lives. Students have planned and organized the sites through use of science and math. The McHenry County Farm Bureau and Illinois Extension tested soil samples and assisted us the planning of which plants to grow and which trees and plants would be good companion plantings to discourage harmful pests and encourage beneficial insects in area.
