Adopt a Garden Box Program

Christine Findlay, School Food Animator, and Jon Pittman, Principal

This year, TA Norris was the fortunate recipient of a grant from Alberta Blue Cross which will be applied to the building of garden boxes on the school grounds. The plan is to incorporate the garden boxes (planting, growing, watering, weeding, harvesting, etc) into the student’s learning and having them get hands-on with this project.

To that end, we are looking for support and input from parent and community stakeholders such as sharing feedback, ideas, time, elbow grease, resources (backhoe, shovels, etc) getting dirt to the school and ...

We are also looking for families to adopt the garden boxes for one week each summer. During your week, you will water, weed, and harvest produce to enjoy at home.

If you’d like to take part in this project in any way, please email Christine, foodanimatorpr@gmail.com. 

Let's get growing!
