The Office of Innovation and Development has been working in partnership with Whole Foods Market to help Graham Elementary School expand their school garden -- and it's growing. At Whole Foods Market each company team is encouraged to hold an annual team-building event. More often than not, teams choose to include a community service component.
Last month, the Global Vice Presidents from each department spent the morning helping Graham turn their one-year-old set of eight raised garden beds into the school’s vision of a living classroom. The work included assembling picnic tables, digging, installing drip irrigation in existing beds, weeding, creating two new limestone raised beds, and mulching walkways.
