GROW is a non-profit that has been working with the School District of La Crosse since 2012 to connect youth to healthy food and nature to nourish growing minds and bodies through hands-on garden based experiences.
Recently, the School District Board of Education voted to support our school garden program through funding that will increase equity across the District. As part of our new strengthened partnership we have added garden programming delivered by GROW at Northside/Coulee Montessori, Emerson and Southern Bluffs.
On Thursday, Wisconsin School Garden Day, we are hosting a media event, ribbon cutting at the new Southern Bluffs School Garden. Superintendent Engel, and GROW Executive Director, Kari Bersagel Braley will both be sharing a few words about the importance and value of garden education to students and the community starting at 10:15 a.m.
Arrive by 10:00am for a ribbon cutting.
