School Gardens

We were honored to work with the Cape Cod Cooperative Extension Service on a weekly after school gardening project at Barnstable United and at Hyannis West from Feb-June. We worked with the students to start the plants inside under lights, and then all the kids got to take tons of plants home. It was very inspiring to work with the next generation of gardeners. All the kids were really excited to work with plants and get their hands dirty!

Here are the 2nd and 3rd graders from Hyannis west. We are in the new raised bed garden in the courtyard at Hyannis West. We hope to see more schools gardening in the future.
