Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We are excited to share our enthusiasm for learning about sustainable farming practices, crop cultivation, and the importance of agriculture in our community. As part of our curriculum, we are planning a hands-on project that involves planting and nurturing various crops. This project not only provides valuable practical experience for our students but also promotes an understanding of where our food comes from and the essential role of agriculture in our lives. Our students need a variety type of seeds vegetables, fruits, herbs, or other crops suitable for our region.
