My nieces and nephews go to Riverway Learning Center in Winona, MN. They successfully ran a school garden (with chickens!) for 3 years. They received support from Americorp's Greencorp program. This year, the school changed locations so the garden has to be rebuilt. They are actually tearing up an old parking lot and building raised beds to make this happen. I found an article about the school and Greencorp from a couple of years ago.
A chance to ‘give back’ -- garden offers more than just produce
Cool story Becca! Thanks for finding the link and adding it. I think MNIC has a similar intern and will will find out about that soon!
