My Students
"Have you Herb?" (Heard)
My students love to use fresh herbs and spices in their lab dishes.
They say "It tastes so fresh, and earthy." Students will be able to be creative based on what they grow and harvest. 90% of my student reside in low-income apartments, and I am giving my students an opportunity to grow their own food from their front porch or balcony. Our garden has been thriving for over 4 years now. This upcoming spring, one of our main focuses is to create an indoor aquaponics garden, using goldfish to supply our seedlings and sprouts with daily nutrients. In our outside garden, we will create a beautiful butterfly garden to attract all of the pollinators to help with our plantings. Having the students create, plan and maintain multiple entities of the culinary garden initiatives, allows them to take full ownership of their successes and unsuccessful events.
Utilizing our fresh products, not only enhances our labs, but it creates a thought process when they are recipe planning. My Students will benefit from this project to increase their critical thinking skills and to devel
My Project
My students will get an awesome opportunity to learn how to grow fresh herbs and vegetables indoors, so they can develop a skill to use at home to start their own indoor garden. Understanding the why and how you grow your own food gives my students a mindset of ownership. Students will then begin to set goals to buy land so they can not only grow their own food, be self-sufficient but, to teach their children and hopefully create a generational farm.
Students will be most satisfied if they can take a seed, care for it, watch it grow and then consume a product that they know was handled with care.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
