My Project

My students have been growing microgreens and lettuce in our classroom and have acquired a taste for greens! We have started growing some veggies indoors but need more supplies to transport our seedlings outdoors to our garden boxes so we can fulfill the taste buds of our expanding pallets!

Your generous donations will help us to fill our homemade garden boxes so we can transplant our seedlings and allow them to grown big enough to harvest.

By preparing our garden boxes this Spring it will allow our seedlings to flourish throughout the Summer which will give students and their families the opportunity to visit our school garden and eat from it.
