We were happy to hear about the progress made by this years winner of the Granary Lil’ Sprouts Program. Caldwell School was the successful applicant that received $500 from The Granary to help connect kids with food. What a great job they did! Teaming up with the Caldwell Garden Club and garnering support from students, staff and parents, the Lil’ Sprout team brought in 3 special guests on different occasions to talk to the children about the importance of bees, eating vegetables, and garden layout. Students had the opportunity to plant seeds for the school garden and to take home. They have also started the process of installing permeant raised garden beds at the school. Thank you to all the parents, teachers, volunteers and students who made this program a success.
