School Gardens
We have seven years of experience with our farm to school gardening program. Phase-1 involved two years of all our learning communities planting gardens in (formerly) flower beds along the exterior walls of the school building. Phase-2 involved shifting our gardening efforts to gardening spaces next to the community garden located on school property. In recent years, some learning communities have chosen to plant and manage their own raised beds each year. Others have chosen to assist with the market garden portion of the gardening program.
