Munger Mountain Elementary School Gardening

The school received a grant from Teton Botanical Garden to build four raised beds. Botanical garden staff assisted teachers and 4th and 5th grade students in filling the beds with soil and planting vegetables. Teachers and students are able to take home the fruits of their labor. Munger Mountain ES is currently working to integrate the program into school curricula, and in fall 2023 a 40ʹ x 20ʹ greenhouse was constructed.
