🌱✨ From Seed to Harvest! ✨🌱
Our STEAMI Summer students are getting their hands dirty and their minds growing! From preparing the soil and planting seeds to watering, maintaining, and harvesting fresh vegetables, our young gardeners are learning that hard work, patience, and teamwork produce amazing results.
This season, students have harvested fresh radishes, cared for collards, spinach, herbs, and other vegetables, while exploring science, math, nutrition, and environmental stewardship through hands-on learning.
Every garden bed tells a story—and our students are writing one of growth, responsibility, and discovery.
🌿 Grow it.
🌿 Learn it.
🌿 Harvest it.
🌿 Eat it.
We are proud of our future farmers, scientists, engineers, and leaders!

Peace isn’t something you stumble upon—it’s something you choose every day. Sometimes the greatest growth comes from letting go of what drains you, releasing what you can’t control, and focusing your energy on what truly matters. Protect your peace, guard your purpose, and keep moving forward. ✨
East Tennessee… you’re not ready for this 🔥
All white. Grown & sexy vibes.
