Students Build Gardens at Bolich Middle School
They spent the day sprucing up the landscaping and prepping two new pizza gardens.
They picked up shovels and rakes, and went to work. Students at Bolich Middle School gathered together to build two school gardens Saturday in participation with the Fuel Up to Play 60 program.
The Fuel Up initiative, an alliance of the NFL and the National Dairy Council, promotes health of the next generation. The in-school program requires 60-minutes of daily activity and the availability of nutrient-rich food.
The school was awarded a $3,000 grant to purchase a salad bar to show off its lucious produce and to pay for the gardening supplies.

Students will plant the vegetables for the pizza gardens on May 27. The plan is to provide fresh ingredients often found on pizzas and additional veggies to snack on, like carrots.
