Wilson Elementary School Garden Club

Students learn various aspects of horticulture, gardening, and food production as they raise vegetables and fruits in five outdoor raised beds. Each fall, cafeteria staff members use fresh produce in meals for the students. The school has a partnership with Mountain Roots Education in Victor, Idaho, to teach gardening skills to students during spring and summer.
