JP Culinary Students Work with JP Permaculture

On a two week rotation, students from the Jasper Place Culinary 10 program will be working in the food forest courtyard and in the greenhouse to collect and grow food for their program, which inevitably ends up bellies of student and staff. Below are some pictures of the herbs we’ve been growing in EarthBoxes over the summer. One of the great things about growing in EarthBoxes is that they’re easy to move and will be brought inside (either to the greenhouse or to the Culinary classroom) to continue growing all winter.
