About the Project

We would purchase two OGarden hydroponic garden systems to be placed in our 6th grade STEAM classroom. These gardens will teach NGSS, Reading, Math, and nearly all subjects. We will learn about plant life, water cycle, STEM careers, problem solving, as well as healthy eating habits for students and families. We will conclude our plant life units by hosting a salsa party for our parents and community members to join in on. Students will grow, wash, prepare, and serve their class-grown vegetables.
