The Farm has many gardens to love and tend: Vegetable garden, herb garden, native plant garden, food forest garden, large greenhouse, orchard, and pollinator beds. The students participate, but need help in making sure there is food for them to learn about nutrition and pollinator plants for them to learn about nature.
