Our goal is to have as many students in our area plant one of these with their favorite vegetable and take it home with them over the summer.

Lets see how many people we can get involved.

This is another Larry Hall video on what is possible.

So all you do is add organic soil mix, then either plant a seed or add a starter plant. You choose.

Here is a story of a high school utilizing this method.
