Garden

Our garden is a space used by all students, who take pride in helping grow food and plant, not only to learn about them but use them in cooking lessons and trying new food.

Currently our garden has:

  • Large garden beds
  • Several compost bays
  • Variety of fruit trees
  • Chicken enclosure with 5 hens

Each week the students participate in garden lessons and caring for the chickens.

Students have been involved in:

  • Planting, cultivating and harvesting crops
  • Propagation
  • Learning about composting
  • Watering and weeding
  • Cleaning out the chicken yard and collecting eggs
