Northfield Middle School Healthy Garden Bed

March 2018

A group of Middle School Youth Center students meet weekly with volunteers from Carleton College.   Together, they plan to build a raised garden bed to be placed at the Middle School.  The group plans to plant fruits, vegetables, and herbs and to tend the garden weekly.  In the fall, they plan to make snacks from the food they harvest and to donate any extra vegetables they have.
