Sprouting School Gardens

I love to see school gardens sprouting anew! Students dig the dirt and they love to harvest. (Don’t we all?) Not only is it loads of fun, but it’s educational. Did I hear win-win? Take a look at how are students are growing…

It all begins with the construction and installation of new garden beds. Thanks to the generous donation from Black Kow, the students can begin with a healthy bed of soil and compost. Tilling the soil provides nice soft beds for our seeds to take sprout.
