The Edible Essa Movement
Blog by: Zach L, Ryan S, Brandon M.
Eco-Crew Zach, Ryan, Brandon, and Dylan have secured a rock-solid plan to better the lives of those in their school, community, and eventually, their world. Through a strong proposal and with a dedicated goal in mind, these bright young men have landed their foot in the door of the Edible Essa Committee, a local group dedicated to building a community greenhouse/garden for all to use. Through the use of this garden, the boys plan to create a salad/veggie wrap bar that can provide their peers with the healthy, tasty school lunches that they crave and deserve at a lower price, all while supporting local farmers and their small-town community.

ReplyDeleteIf you're building it yourself, is the construction classes in the school going to help? Will you be doing fundraising for your greenhouse?
