My Project

Hello! Teaching students how to grow their own food in different ways is such an amazing tool for them. This would enhance their science experience in a real world way, that hopefully they can take with them into the future. Real life skills of being able to grow their own food in ANY environment is an essential skill for their future. A tower garden will show them that you can grow a garden in any space, and aquaponics shows them that you don’t even need soil! Please help fund our project!
