Our Purpose

Our purpose is to...Students in the Addision County Parent Child Center Greenhouse will learn how to garden, in this case in a greenhouse setting (as well as an outside garden).  For example, they will learn the proper vegetables to plant for greenhouse propagation, ie. lettuce varieties which can be successfully grown in a greenhouse.  Basic horticultural practices of planting and caring for seeds will be given to the students. All vegetables grown will be harvested and used in the lunchroom.
