Vice-Chairman Jones questioned if we are looking at starting a horticulture club where we would
have available a patch that kids could earn. He also asked about the status of getting electricity
and storage at the PATCH garden.
Executive Director Bach responded Dion Taylor has worked on a curriculum to partner with
schools, and Collins Elementary would be our pilot program. Part of it would be the component
of having the kids come to the PATCH to help them grow their own garden there, as well as
engaging them in gardening activities and volunteer work, for which there would be additional
rewards. She noted the scope of work for the USDA grant application on tonight's agenda
would include expenditures for electricity, lighting, and fans.
