🌱 Did You Know... 🌱
Head Start Fact of the Day!

🥕 Farm to School & Learning from Our Gardens! 🌻

Head Start helps children learn where their food comes from through Farm to School activities, local farms and hands-on experiences in our very own gardens!

👩‍🌾 Children can explore, plant, grow, and learn about fresh foods while building healthy habits and connecting with nature.

🌱 Growing healthy minds and healthy habits—one garden at a time! 💚
