One of the wonderful things about the garden is the number of people both old and young who join in the various tasks to reach our sustainability goals. Not all of the work is outdoors in the sunshine.The Fifth Grade Green Team consists of volunteers who help collect the kitchen waste, weigh it, and flatten cardboard for recycling. The composting step is messy but vital to enrich the soil for the garden.When we harvest and enjoy the additions to the salad bar that we produced, everyone can share in the pride!
