How we got here

CJA students have worked for two years on the garden.  We built compost bins from shipping pallets, built raised bed boxes from reused lumber, built a chicken coop and a chicken run.  Now we're in our second growing season.

We learned a lot about how food is grown, and why it's good to grow it locally.

We've eaten eggs from our chickens, and basil, cilantro, bell peppers, arugula, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, and more from our garden.

This is what CJA looked like before we started our garden.
Here is a picture of us building a new compost bin:
