A GARDEN FOR EVERYONE! UN JARDIN PARA TODOS!

For over 100 years, there's always been a garden at Elysian Heights Elementary School.

Today, this beautiful tradition lives on as the Elysian School Garden, our on-site organic edible garden + outdoor classroom serving all EHAM students, families, teachers, and the greater school community. 

Our garden program's mission is to build community and environmental stewardship via permaculture gardening, composting, and native landscaping. Elysian School Garden features over 10 raised beds, 2 native pollinator beds, an outdoor classroom + kitchen, a compost hub, and is home to a beloved flock of friendly chickens.  We are also a certified Monarch Waystation and ENRICHLA partner. Every student receives garden curriculum instructional time emphasizing natural science. 

Elysian School Garden currently offers:

• In-School Garden Enrichment Education for Every Student

• Community Work Days & Open Visiting Hours

• Garden Club

• Workshops

• Green Waste Collection

• Farm Stand

• Harvest Bags for Families experiencing Food Insecurity

Elysian School Garden is entirely maintained and sustained through volunteer work + donations. If you would like to donate your time, resources, or make a financial contribution, please email us at:  elysianschoolgarden@gmail.com
