It’s taken quite a few years to figure this out, but we finally created a relationship with McKinley-Brighton school that worked! The kids and teachers did a great job with integrating their artwork into the garden, and we even coordinated a new growing space just for them to have fun and learn in. :>) Check it out when you’re heading down South Salina St! By the way, strawberries are ripening as we sleep and breathe, grab a snack, and take a look at what’s new, what’s old, and what’s in real.<\/span><\/p>\n

A collaboration between Rahma Edible Forest Snack Garden<\/a> and nearby McKinley-Brighton Elementary School is, like trees, something that offers many co-benefits.<\/p>\n

Just two favorite benefits that come to mind:
\n– Kids enjoying and learning about the outdoors and land-revitalizing gardening
\n– Attention for the ecosystem from not only adult permaculture volunteers and school teachers, but also from the up-and-coming generation that will grow alongside trees at this forest garden.<\/p>\n

\n

I love to see trees grow in their different life stages. A tiny leaf emerging, to a foot high seedling, to a hip-high shrub…to a 30+ foot adult that may live hundreds of years. I’m hopeful that with kids and forest gardens enjoying life in mutual benefit, both are catalyzed to grow to their fullest potential.<\/p>\n

Thanks to all who helped make this connection and who have shared some love with Rahma Garden. Big shoutout to Frank Raymond Cetera<\/a> – this certainly isn’t and can’t be done alone, but you’ve been a great leader keeping this moving through thick and thin! Great to see its fruits.<\/p>\n
