We are so excited! Sauvie Island School was awarded School Garden of the Year. Take a look at the kind words from the ODE.
The school garden that best demonstrates innovation and engages children in learning about Oregon food and agriculture.
This year's School Garden of the Year is a place where learning comes alive. Students explore science, nutrition, agriculture, sustainability, and healthy living through hands-on experiences in the garden. Supported by an incredible network of educators, families, volunteers, and community partners, this garden has become a centerpiece of the school community and a powerful connection between students and the food they eat. The Oregon Harvest for Schools School Garden of the Year is Sauvie Island School.
Thank you to our garden coordinator, Ms. Zoe, our families, staff, and community sponsors: Linnton Feed and Seed, Columbia Farms, Fazio Farms, Topaz Farm, Oak Island Farms, Bailey Nursery, Ford Farms, Ground Culture PDX, Marny and Roy Elicker, and Sauvie Island Grange.
This would not have been possible without your help and support.
