Garden Club begins on Wednesday March 14th and continues through May 23rd. The goals of the CTA Garden Club are as follows:
* Club members in 3rd** through 7th grade learn about gardening with hands on experience in 12, 1-hour sessions.
* Provide students "Grow Your Buds" lunches, when they can taste test the vegetables harvested.
* Deliver fresh produce to community members living in poverty (5th and 6th grades only) 2- 3 times per session.
* Continue in our partnership with CJDS in the Yarok Together Program (described deliveries above).
This is the fourth Spring Season of activities in the gardens. Since 2014, 11 Garden Beds have been built by CTA Students, including three Low Tunnels. In addition students and staff built a Greenhouse which extends our seasons further.
This spring we will make use of all of these CTA campus resources to produce beets, onions, kale, spinach and herbs.
**Students in the 3rd grade must be accompanied by an adult guardian or sibling of high school age.
To offset program costs, there is a charge of $25 per student for the entire spring session. To register please complete the following form, including your choice of payment. If you or someone you know has difficulty paying this fee, please contact the Garden Project Coordinator, Diana D'Angelo-Wolff
