Granite City Community Gardens has recently planted a garden at the High School. Austin Gaines was instrumental in getting this started. Right now he has help from the Science Club and many of the faculty.
The students worked really hard moving the dirt and putting everything together.
There are four raised beds that have a variety of plants in them.
The city was kind enough to donate the dirt for the beds. We needed two trucks to bring all the dirt in.
This is an important project for the gardens. Many schools are expressing interest in having a garden on their property so we are waiting to see how this one turns out before we get more schools involved.
So far everything is looking great!
