Gardening

Every elementary student attends gardening class once per week, which are led by our Gardening Guide, Lucille Berrones.
Students learn how to care for an edible garden, building basic skills such as how to water, weed, build healthy soils, and seasonal planting. Her classes extend into many lessons, such as good nutrition, sensory tastings, botany, native habitats, sustainable practices and more. She gives students time to observe, reflect, and build a deeper awareness of the environment around them. The majority of the garden space is allocated to annual vegetables and cut flowers, which are either eaten during class or sold by students at a farm stand to raise money for the garden.
