Each group has it's own unique challenges
and advantages. The class gardens are the core of our program. Teachers
bring their students out weekly to participate in a variety of hands-on
garden based lessons. They begin with planting potatoes in March
around St. Patrick's Day and continue through the end of school.
They pick up again in the fall planting a few late crops, harvesting and
finally putting the gardens to bed around Thanksgiving week. The class
gardens are grouped together in locations all around the primary and elementary
school grounds.
