The Monarch Grove Children’s Garden was created in 2005 by a group of parents who revamped an existing California native garden and constructed raised beds for vegetables and herbs on an unused portion of the school grounds. Over the past years, fruit trees have been planted, a garden shed purchased and a larger worm bin constructed, creating an outdoor classroom. Students are taught about composting using their lunch leftovers to feed the worm compost bin. The compost is used to keep our garden growing strong!
The Garden is supported financially by the PTA and generous donations from the community. The children have raised funds through plant sales and farmer’s markets. We currently maintain the garden through supportive parents whom organize workdays and help facilitate students and teachers utilizing the Garden. We love our MG garden!
