There is one school that will show students the basics of gardening on site. These gardens showcase some of the most popular plants that students can grow. But they also teach students valuable concepts that everyone wants to know. Teachers are pleased with the progress being made with the gardening effort.

The Plumas Unified School District provides garden facilities at all four of its elementary campuses — including Chester, Indian Valley, Portola and Quincy — and works from what began as the local Digging In community gardening program to offer curriculum-based instruction that dovetails with PUSD’s science education goals.
