Students at Heard Elementary enjoy getting their hands dirty in their on-campus garden beds, where they’ve grown a variety of different plants and vegetables. Heard is one of 26 schools chosen to pilot agriculture programs at the elementary level thanks to Senate Bill 330, which passed last year. You can help teachers make this pilot a success by supporting the #GivetoGrow campaign on #GivingTuesday . Visit www.gfb.ag/GivetoGrow to learn more and help.
