The school garden has had a great season and continues to produce a variety of vegetables. This summer, we harvested over 175 pounds of fresh, chemical-free vegetables and herbs that included cucumbers, zucchini, summer squash, garlic scapes, beans, tomatoes, basil, parsley, sage, thyme, and chives. Our summer produce was donated to Food Link in Arlington, an organization supporting under-resourced communities and advocating systems change. Now that school has started, we will enjoy the continuing harvests in school lunches. Students from many grades use the garden as a learning space and help to maintain the garden. This week, second graders harvested 30 pounds of tomatoes, beans, and zucchini and will continue to visit the garden weekly this fall.
