Concrete Farm to School Program

September has seen the return of students to the school gardens! We've been busy harvesting produce, making salsa, sampling things, drying flowers, enjoying school garden melons(!), and finding pollinators. The school cafeteria has included zucchini, cucumbers, lettuce, melons, tomatoes, green beans, peppers, broccoli, and onions from the school farm in meals this fall!

Concrete Farm to School is one of over 50 programs offered by United General District 304 promoting health and wellbeing at every stage of life.
