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.

Guaranteed Spring
It's just around the corner - the trees know it and are budding despite the snow. Time to pick your garden bed and seeds and get planting those seedlings inside before March Break!
Garden Champion Wanted
As our family will graduate soon, we are looking for someone to take over the City of Vancouver Green Streets Garden boulevards, which are currently operated by the 'Wolfe PAC'. For garden bed access behind the annex, please contact the PAC or attend a meeting to find out if your class can participate this coming year.
Anyone interested in doing garden lessons is encouraged to contact Tamara or Libby. There is a list of several lower mainland groups active in the Vancouver School Food Network that would be available to partner with Wolfe for growing food programs. These include:
- SPEC (Society for the Promotion of Environmental Conservation)
- Earthbites
- Think and Eat Green
- Fresh Roots
- Growing Chefs
