Thank you Whole Foods Whole Kids Foundation!
This year's garden activities will be possible in part by a $2000 grant we applied for from Whole Foods. The focus is on growing local, organic food and teaching kids where their meals come from - the ground! Customers at Whole Foods for the past couple weeks have been making donations at the four Whole Foods throughout Vancouver to support these agricultural initiatives at many schools:
General Wolfe Elementary School Grounds Committee has had Green Street Boulevards, food gardens and indigenous species naturalized playspaces and outdoor landscaped classrooms. Whole Foods Whole Kids Foundation, Think & Eat Green and our own PAC have contributed to our activities. The Gardens have been part of Wolfe for 25 years and we need new parent volunteers to keep on growing.

Super Local Spud Salad
Welcome Back to School! Eat Wolfe-grown potatoes on Thursday!
We're going to dig up the potatoes that have been growing by the gym.
The Welcome Back BBQ is on Thursday evening, and we hope to have dug, washed, cut & cooked our very local potatoes to serve to everyone. These are potatoes from Wolfe gardens grown near the gym. In previous years, we usually plant a few different varieties to teach about biodiversity.
