Graham Elementary Expands School Garden with Whole Foods

The Office of Innovation and Development has been working in partnership with Whole Foods Market to help Graham Elementary School expand their school garden -- and it's growing. At Whole Foods Market each company team is encouraged to hold an annual team-building event. More often than not, teams choose to include a community service component.

Last month, the Global Vice Presidents from each department spent the morning helping Graham turn their one-year-old set of eight raised garden beds into the school鈥檚 vision of a living classroom. The work included assembling picnic tables, digging, installing drip irrigation in existing beds, weeding, creating two new limestone raised beds, and mulching walkways.
