Students at Chesapeake Montessori School in Annapolis planted the first seeds of a sustainable vegetable gardening project that is part of the school's campus expansion program.
Garlic, spinach and lettuce were planted in large containers in late September, with assistance from Severn Grove Ecological Design.
The organic gardening project will ultimately include extensive in-ground vegetable plots where students will grow and harvest a wide range of produce to cook, eat and offer to the community.
The gardening project is designed to connect students to their environment and the community, while exploring the components of operating a small business.
