Northern Heights Elementary school garden was established in September 2017, with support from Common Threads. Over the course of just one year the garden classroom has gone from just a few raised beds, to a collection of thriving garden filled with a variety of edible roots, stems, leaves, and flowers, a berry patch brimming with strawberries and raspberries, and a functioning compost system. The long-term goal for the garden includes a shed, sheltered outdoor classroom, greenhouse, and more. Luckily, our school garden is not only the pride of our students, but the teachers, families, and PTA as well!
