Description:

The Carver Elementary School Garden was founded in 2012, when the 2nd grade teacher at Carver, Ms. Hogan, Ray Meylor of Pheasants Forever and the IIzaak Walton League, and FoodCorps service members broke ground in April. The garden was constructed with support from Maid-Rite Corporation, and consists of six 6 foot by 45 foot strips and four raised beds.

How to Help:

The Boys & Girls Club and parents from the community help support and maintain the garden. Contact Carver Elementary School at 515-242-8418 to find out more about opportunities to help with the garden.
