Kindergarten makes Farm to School connection with Apples
Last week Kindergarten took a field trip to Hackett's Orchard.  They picked apples and saw how they are cleaned and processed for sale.  The students and staff returned to St. Albans City School with apples that they are now processing into tasty treats.

Voyagers Root Crop Farm to School and Family and Consumer Science Project

For three years now, the Voyagers students have planted and harvested their own potatoes. The harvested potatoes are washed, chopped up and coated with olive oil and a little salt and garlic powder.  They are then baked and served to students and staff in the learning community. Instruction provided by Mrs. Lamb and Mrs. Smith.
