The Community Garden

The Garden Program

Martha Egnal heads up the Community Garden Program. She is ready to share her excitement about organic gardening with our GMS kids in this new program. Working in the school's community organic garden and those new ones created by the students, our kids will learn about soil preparation, planting, watering, and of course harvesting and eating. Can you dig it? We will use the barn near the garden as the Organic Classroom. This is going to be a very special program that you will be hearing about for a long time to come.
