This hydroponic garden is self-watering and includes grow lights. The Tower Garden allows these J. Andrew Morrow students to grow fruits, vegetables, and herbs right in the classroom! The classes planted seeds and after germination, placed them in the garden. Months later, students and teachers are enjoying fresh produce. In order to maintain the garden, the kids are monitoring the water and pH levels; as well as harvesting and enjoying the fresh food.
Students love the calming nature of the trickling water, increased oxygen, and plant life in their learning environments! They are gaining knowledge about the process and benefits of growing their own food.
