SWS Organic Farming Planting Beds Upgraded on the Day of Service!

by scfeeney 23 October 2016

Wheatley’s School-Within-A-School is a democratic, student-run learning community that provides innovative learning and leadership opportunities for students. Several years ago, SWS began a garden unit and created plant beds for organic farming. As part of this year’s Day of Service and Learning, students tended to the existing beds, repairing them and preparing them for the winter months. There was even time to build some new benches for the area!

Thanks to Pat Clarke and Tom Storck for leading a terrific group of students on this project.
