In conjunction with Dr. Cathy Rehmeyer, the Pikeville High School ACES 2 class started a garden at Pikeville Elementary. To implement the garden, raised beds were constructed to separate the garden from the rest of the field. Raised beds are a rectangular prisms filled with soil. They can be personalized by painting the sides and can be covered to allow vegetation to grow in the winter. Raised beds can be made in a multitude of sizes to meet the gardener’s need.

Raised Beds

Students at our Elementary School were allowed to paint a mural on the side of the school building. Each piece was drawn and painted by a different student. The sidewalk to the garden is being lined with stones that have been hand painted by students of all grade levels. The purpose of the project was to beautify the area surrounding the garden and incorporate the arts into our agriculture based project.
