We welcome all local community members to visit the Koelsch community garden and harvest vegetables to feed your families. Come bearing your empty bags and leave full of fresh goodies! We do ask that you keep in mind that this garden is meant to be shared by many of our neighbors, so please take what you need to feed your family, while leaving enough for others as well.
Check the harvest schedule below to see what is ready to pluck from our school garden and pop onto your dinner plates!
