New this year, courtesy of a USDA Food and Nutrition Services grant, we are installing hydroponic tower gardens! The students have set up their tower gardens and will begin the planting process in January.
Students harvested some produce and are headed to the cafeteria to share the bounty, as well as take some home to enjoy with the family! Kale chips, anyone? It’s great to be a gardener and share the wealth of health with others.
Last year, the students did a fantastic job filling their beds with soil as they begin the gardening process.
Everyone took part in the filling process, then raked the surface smooth in preparation for planting.
Can’t wait to watch them grow!
