Something is growing at Oak Hammock K-8, and it’s more than plants. Ms. Michelle Miller-Grant and our Osprey Garden Club are making our campus a more beautiful place, one garden bed at a time.
The club has already finished a garden in the middle of campus that students, staff and visitors stop to admire every day. What used to be an ordinary patch of ground is now a colorful, welcoming spot at the heart of our school, and our students did the planning, digging, planting and caring.
Now the Garden Club is working on its next project: a new garden area outside the cafeteria. Once it’s done, students will pass a growing green space on their way to lunch every day.
The club meets after school and during lunch. M. Miller-Grant uses that time for more than gardening. Students learn about plants and caring for the environment, and they get to see their hard work turn into something the whole school can enjoy. They’re building responsibility, teamwork and Osprey pride along the way.
Thank you, Ms. Miller-Grant and Garden Club members, for helping our campus bloom. Watch for updates as the cafeteria garden takes shape!
