Another Update from our 30 in 30 Winners!

We got a great suite of photos from Minnie Moore at Patrick Springs Primary School.  (You can view them here)  The kids at Patrick Springs are growing a “Bowl of Lettuce” school garden and are expanding it to include tomatoes, corn, peas, potatoes, and all kinds of nutritious veggies. While the project has been going on for a couple of years the grant money from Keep Virginia Beautiful seems to be kicking it up a notch!

The garden has been a great tool to teach students about plant cycles, botany, nutrition, composting and organic growing.  It really sounds like our kind of school!

Take a look at the slideshow and enjoy!
