Are you interested in Pick-Your-Own
Free, Fresh, Organic Produce
as accessible as a visit your child’s school?
If your answer is “yes,” please consider joining the
Eagle Bluff Family Garden Club!
What is the Family Garden Club?
The Family Garden Club consists of families interested in tending and
harvesting vegetables that will be grown in the school garden beds located in
front of the school to the right of the main entrance. Family Garden Club
members will sign up for a couple of dates during the summer to tend the
garden at whatever time of day is convenient (less than an hours worth of work
including harvest time), in exchange they can harvest a portion the vegetables
that are ready at that time. NO GARDENING EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!!!
INSTRUCTIONS WILL BE GIVEN! Work mostly consists of watering and
harvesting – very little weeding if any. Vegetables that are still producing in the
fall when school starts again will be harvested by students and used in the
school salad bar.
What is the purpose of the Family Garden Club?
To allow Eagle Bluff families who do not have a backyard garden, the
chance to experience
growing their own food.
To provide healthy, fresh, organic produce to Eagle Bluff kids and their
families for
FREE.
To make use of the existing beds that would be otherwise vacant over the
summer.
To provide a wide variety of school grown, fresh organic produce for Eagle
Bluff students in the fall.
