The district is partnering with the Washington State Department of Agriculture, Pacific Education Institute and Washington State University to build the gardens, reports The Daily World.
The gardens are a part of the district's plan to incorporate garden science into its curriculum. The student-grown produce harvested in the gardens will be used in the district's lunch program.
A team of students is working this summer with the maintenance department to build the gardens.
The state Department of Agriculture’s Farm-to-School Program will help the district explore ways to bring locally grown food into the School Lunch program.
