Our Purpose

to prioritize goals & facilitate good communication among all the parties. This is the core planning committee for our school/community garden which consists of the principals from both schools (Camel's Hump Middle and Richmond Elementary School), as well as two parent volunteers who function as the garden coordinators. We have a larger group that includes teaching staff, food service managers and the Farm-to-School coordinator from both schools, as well as a representative of Our Community Cares Camp, a summer program for children in our community facing food insecurity.
