This project will provide a hands-on experience for our students. Not only will this project get our kids outside, they will learn the valuable skills of building a garden from the ground up, managing resources, growing their own food and providing refuge for pollinators. Gardening is a skill that's being lost between generations. I hope that this project will serve my students and they will use these skills the rest of their lives. This garden will reflect the minds of our students, ready to grow! I hope our school garden will provide a learning place for students and a peaceful place to relax and take in the beauty they have nurtured.
