Community Garden: Combining STEM with Nutritional Needs
Help me give my students the ability to create a garden for their families and community with fresh, healthy produce that is often financially inaccessible.
Investing in our community garden will not only enhance our students' neighborhood but also provide them with fresh, healthy produce. Your donation will provide raised beds, seeds, gardening tools, seed starter kits, and a small, indoor greenhouse. By participating in the community garden, students will learn practical gardening skills such as composting, water conservation, and pollinators.
The garden will provide fresh vegetables that aren't affordable for some of our families, ensuring access to nutritious food options.
And also beautiful flowers to brighten their home or somebody's day. Your support will help foster a thriving environment for learning and growth within our community.
