City Growers (the educational non-profit associated with the Brooklyn Grange rooftop farm) returned to PS 8 this week to reprise the vermicomposting workshop it did with 7th graders earlier this month. Two 4th grade classrooms are piloting the workshops this year and will be maintaining compost bins in their classrooms. Our Teachers College Garden Coach, Nicole, will do related workshops with the remaining 4th grade classrooms in early April — all connected to the 4th grade’s study of ecosystems.
This work is supported by our Garden Committee — reach out if you want to learn more, or join our monthly meetings before school on the first Thursday of the month!
