And Viola! A Garden Appeared

| 2 Comments | No TrackBacks

The heat index soared above 100 degrees on Friday in Houston, but hundreds of PriceWaterhouseCoopers employees worked from 8:00 in the morning until 4:00 in the afternoon to transform an empty 1/4 acre of MacGregor schoolyard into our first Recipe Garden.



20 raised beds will provide plenty of space for each class to experiment with growing fruits and vegetables, and provide a graphic lesson in our seed-to-plate curriculum.  Next step, topsoil, irrigation, grass.  We will all be back working on June 22 to finish the job.

Wow, what an effort! Great job!

Can you just imagine all of HISD with the concept of seed to plate. Volunteers & Recipe for Success team did amazing work for the MacGregor community and we can't wait to see more!
