Amanda Durand, the director of the Lake City Public School childcare program Tiger Time, said she was unsure at first whether children would show any interest in tending a garden over the summer.
The school received grant money from the State Health Improvement Program (SHIP) and a private donation of soil that allowed it to construct and fill two four-feet-by-eight-feet elevated gardens with tomatoes, peppers, kohlrabi and other vegetables at Bluff View Elementary School.
