About the Farm

Background

Lionheart Gardens is an integral part of the Lionheart School, providing a hands-on learning environment that reinforces classroom curriculum. The garden has become a place where students not only learn about agriculture but also gain valuable life skills and vocational training, with some students even securing job placements post-graduation.

Practices

Students and community members engage in every aspect of the gardening process, from planning and starting seeds to cultivating the land and harvesting produce. This collaborative approach ensures that the garden is maintained with care and attention to detail, fostering a deep connection between the participants and the land.

The Rest

Produce from the garden is sold both at the school and on the farm, offering fresh, locally-grown options to the community. The garden also provides volunteer opportunities and educational classes throughout the season, inviting broader community involvement.
