My Project

The new garden season is coming up and I would like to get soil and needed materials to start the growing process in the greenhouse and the raised beds. The students have been anxiously awaiting the season and I am looking forward to seeing all the great things they will be planting. I am requesting a variety of items such as tags, hose and nozzle, supplements for the soil and soil.

The students have been maintaining the garden by pruning, cleaning up, and organizing in preparation for the season

I am just as excited to see what they will be growing. I am always

looking forward to teaching them how to prepare things with the harvest.
