Urban Farming Collaborates with LAUSD Beyond the Bell!

Great news for students who want to participate in gardening and ecoliteracy hands-on projects at Nora Sterry Elementary School over the summer!

Beginning July 7th, 2008 and continuing until August 1, students can come to campus, eat free lunch and participate in the Urban Farming Program. The gardening activities and the waste management activities will take place afternoons from 3:00 to 4:30 on most days.

We hope to maintain the school vegetable and fruit gardens as well as start seedlings for planting in the Fall. We also hope to build the 6 raised beds for the Growing Great Pilot Project beginning in the Fall.

Hope to see you at school this summer, helping to maintain and expand our school gardening program!
