MUSD Farm-to-School Program
Students in the farm program along with teacher Ryan Costa are busy at work with planting seeds, plowing, digging trenches, and picking crops. The veggies will be sold to the MUSD Nutrition Services Department and then sent to the school cafeterias. During the winter the students are growing cabbage, bok choy, and radishes. During the summer months the farm grows squash, peppers, jalapenos, watermelon, and more. This is a great experience for the students and the schools are benefiting from the fresh grown vegetables as well.
Environmental Stewards attended a kickoff meeting on Tuesday, October 25, 2011. There were a total of forty-seven 6-8th grade students and eight High School Environmental Ambassadors at the District office complex who participated in an exciting three hour intensive training. The focus centered on energy conservation and efficiency. The students conducted audits throughout the campus in four key areas of conservation: phantom/vampire load shedding, refrigeration, lighting, and heating and air conditioning temperature controls. They reported back their findings for opportunities and were charged with seeking those same opportunities at their school sites!!
