#kids growing

A terrific project from Calypso Farm in Ester, near Fairbanks, and a model for communities elsewhere, it’s The Tour de Plants, this Saturday, July 27. The notion is to ride a bike, or sponsor a rider to move from one school garden to another, promoting school gardening, local eating, hands on growing, and more. It’s a fundraiser for the Schoolyard Garden Initiative.
The fellow with the major bowl of veggies is part of Chinook Charter School’s first ever schoolyard garden.
