School Description

We are an urban school in the traditional territory of the Okanagan Sylix people. We have been growing our school food program over the past few years and now have 8 outdoor raised beds, irrigated with in ground sprinklers, three tower gardens and a microgreen cart! We are looking to better integrate these gardens with our classrooms and community.
