Our project involved a collaboration between four RDSB schools (using G-Suite Apps). The attached PDF file provides a detailed description of our efforts. The general purpose of the project was to promote innovation, sustainable water use, and the recycling of materials via the creation of vertical gardens. Students from each school shared their experiences, results and future plans for their vertical gardens with their partner schools. Students also learned about how healthy gardening can be made accessible to all, regardless of what type of housing they reside.
