The GSB Organic Teaching Garden was designed by our parent-run Garden Club. Our 5th graders will become organic gardening experts by studying the success and failure of this garden and designing their own garden to give to the next 5th grade class.
We have 5 raised-beds for food production that are planted in companion-style neighborhoods and are on a 4 year crop rotation. Our perimeter beds were designed by our kindergarteners to attract and support pollinators. The perimeter beds also include native plants, food crops, and fun crops like indian corn.
In addition to supporting and enhancing classroom education, the garden will support our Mangia Mondays which are facilitated by our Wellness Coordinator. The seasonal crops we produce are explored every Monday and shared in our dining room during lunch time.
