CSA and Farmer's Market Stand at IOS this year!
A CSA is a community supported agricultural endeavor. This year we are stepping into new territory as we introduce two new projects to our school family as part of our yearlong theme, "What's For Dinner." We plan to start small with weekly produce baskets for perhaps 5 to 7 subscribing families. The students will be integrating the development and application of math, reading, writing, observation and exploration tools as we take this new step together. Students will work at the school's farmer's market a few times this school year and volunteer at the Pflugerville farmer's market and community gardens. Our students will learn a variety of skills through these projects, including marketing strategies, customer service, budgeting, finance, recipe development, and self-confidence, but best of all, they will be having fun outside in the magic world of nature. You will be hearing more about this as we take our next steps.
