What's Ready in the Garden

It's that time . . . harvest time! We've been harvesting more than 6 kinds of greens like kale, collards, tatsoi, pac choi, mustard greens and chard. We're making delicious stir fry at several schools. There's excitement in the air!

Students are harvesting greens at Ida B Wells High School.

Squash is ready to eat . . .


The broccoli and fava beans are growing fast!


Check back to see our progress as we cook and eat all these tasty veggies!

I stumbled into your blog and what you are doing awesome. I've never heard of anything like this and I hope programs like these become more widespread. It looks like the garden was quite a success too.

P.S. Maybe you can tell me why my bananna trees are turning a blackish brown. I have been keeping them covered in the freezing cold at night.
