Completed Projects !

Raised Garden - A 3 high 2' x 6" raised garden eight feet long was created by the students. This is the first of approx. six that we propose to build this year. The trouble we have had the past two growing seasons is the encroachment of the what we call the devil grass. This past summer it began to overtake our garden. Mrs Havers farm class has done an excellent job of weed abatement in the garden!

We will wrap the inside of the planter with building paper to help prevent moisture from reaching the wood and slow rotting.






Two inside Chicken Coops: Two inside coops were made by the students and in doing so created three separate areas. The main area is now where we keep the chicken and goat feed in trash cans. The chicken feeder is also inside the main area away from Felicia!





Roosting Poles - Allows Chicken easier access to nesting boxes. The boxes have been in the coop since May. The only box that would get used on a regular basis was the box that had the blue feeder in front of it. Since the students add the 2"x 4" wood all of the hen boxes are getting used.


Compost Areas #3. Students built compost area #3 and filled it with green waste.


Sink and Compost area#2 Students added the shelf to the sink area and installed a new larger sink.  The student split the front of the compost bin and added both green and brown waste.



Brought out Picnic Benches
