SAGE Dining Organic Garden - Students Growing Strong

You may think planting an organic garden is just about eating vegetables that are grown and nurtured without the use of pesticides.  Here in our link section is a Vimeo link to a video about the green garden at the Pine Crest School Boca Raton Campus.  The Lower School (Pre-K-Grade 5) Building was built a couple of years ago and has been certified LEED Gold.  The architects created a green garden and cisterns in the design plan for the school.  As you can see their food director has taken it to a new level!  See how planting and growing an organic garden on YOUR school campus can be used as a teaching tool and integrated into your school’s curriculum!
