Joseph Battin School No. 4 Main

Garden at the End of the School Year and Summer School

Students at Joseph Battin #4 Main checked on the garden before the end of the School Year to make sure it was growing well, to water it and to do some weeding. Then, during Summer School, our custodians helped with the irrigation and students were able to see the vegetables growing. Students got to taste some tomatoes and cucumbers.
