Vision
Our vision for Canada is to work with innovative technologies to grow our schools food for our lunch programs run for the school and for the baseball academy. It is important to teach sustainability by growing ones own food. This also teaches students the importance of having a healthy and nutritious diet.
Action
We have built a greenhouse program and are growing vegetables in their like lettuce, spinach, swiss chard, beans, peas and tomatoes. The students have really enjoyed the process of planting and growing their seeds and now we want to expand on the project by creating a permanent power source to run the greenhouse early and late into the growing seasons.
Reflection & Celebration
I am so extremely happy with how well the project has been going and am looking forward to having a permanent power location.
