Play:

Topics:

Access to Healthy Foods, Community Involvement,  Teamwork

The students at Affton High School formed a garden club and are very excited to work on starting the school and community garden. So far, the students have worked very hard collecting milk cartons in the cafeteria to start an herb garden. The future plans for the Affton High School garden are to have vegetable and fruit garden beds. The students are very excited to grow many different varieties of food to enjoy!

How do you plan to make this Play last during the school year and beyond?

The students are excited to expand their garden ideas further with vegetable and fruit garden beds. They look forward to seeing the plants grow and to eat them at school. They are also excited to share the garden with the community!
