Outdoor learning is growing … and so is Falcon Farms 2.0, which is sprouting on the east side of Â鶹ӰÒô High School.
Thanks to a collective effort of community partners and students and staff, the project provides a space for hands-on learning where students use their biology and ecology knowledge to garden and grow food.
Community partners that supported the remade garden space include the Â鶹ӰÒô Fund for Education, the Â鶹ӰÒô Booster Club, the City of Â鶹ӰÒô and Honest Weight Food Co-op. Thank you!
Students from pre-engineering and construction career and technical education programs built beautiful new garden beds, a Free Farm Stand and picnic tables. Students from Earth Science AP Environmental Science classes and the Â鶹ӰÒô High Outdoor Club filled the new beds with a variety of fruits, vegetables and flowers.
As crops become ready for harvest, the food will be shared with students and families in the Â鶹ӰÒô High community via the Farm Stand (stay tuned for more info about this!).
