We are a K-6 elementary school with 176 students. We currently have 7 (10x4) raised beds in the front of our school and 2 in the back of our school. Our gardens are focused around herbs, some root vegetables, and flowers that allow for maximum learning opportunities in the spring and fall. We also take advantage of hooping and grow spring and fall greens for our salad bar in the cafeteria. Our next project to install a small permaculture garden which would include more perennial plantings. Our 3rd grade is designing the garden while they learn about permaculture concepts. We hope to start sheet mulching soon!
