It is our great pleasure that schools throughout Albuquerque, New Mexico and the US  have discovered the fact that Veggiegrower Gardens make educating young people about gardening and food production very easy.  the micro intensive gardens are accecible to the youngest of children, do not require tiresome digging and weeding, and are extremely succesfull.  This combination of attributes allow children to become succesfull and interested gardeners and to have many possitive experiences growing some of their own food.

Ten Veggiegrower Gardens now provide children at Bandelier Elementary school with the opportunity to learn about gardening and food production.
