McLeansville Elementary builds a new school garden!

With help from an enthusiastic and energetic crew, McLeansville's school garden is up and running! Master Gardener Mentor Carol Spratley, played a great supporting role along with a crew of teachers headed by 3rd/4th grade teacher Jamie Lee, Principal Shervawn Sockwell lends her strong support to the gardening project.


Cherry tomato transplants were provided by Odile Huchette and Alex Wofford in the Reeid Greenhouse at NCA&T as part of the Urban Ag program.



Square foot gardening will be used in some of the beds.




The whole campus is getting involved, here they are making observations in their journals of the new garden. We look forward to updates from this wonderful school with a brand new garden!
