Potter Elementary School

Picture
Alicia took over a Food Corps garden in September of 2017 and has spent her year making an interactive space for the students and teachers of Potter Elementary School.  The original garden was a field with rows of crops.  She added winding paths and structures such as a Farm Stand where students can barter with neighbors for vegetables grown in the garden.  Her intention was to create a space that could build sentiment in the students and staff at Potter.  The garden grows carrots, potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, beans along with corn, squash and pumpkins in the back garden to create a space for the annual Potter Fall Harvest Festival.

​The future plans are to develop a perennial food forest that will be utilized by the children and staff who attend and work at Potter Elementary School.  Alicia hopes to see the project expand when her Food Corps term ends in July 2017.
