Norfolk County Agricultural High School proudly presents....
The Aggie Abundance Victory Garden!
In uncertain times, the Aggie would like to step up its community service with the important task of raising food for the community!
This week was a huge leap forward for the Aggie Abundance Covid Victory Garden. Teachers volunteered their time to plant vegetables that will be given away this summer to help families make ends meet during this time of food shortages and high unemployment.
Thousands of vegetables have been planted.
In true Aggie form people have pulled together to help the greater community.
Bob Brol and Fred Bernhardt spent time welding and adapting an antique plow that was donated to the Aggie so that it could be pulled behind a tractor, as we no longer have draft horses on campus. John Lee put the plow to good use and created furrows so that potatoes donated from Gilmores could be planted. The entire garden is now planted! We will be looking for staff and alumni volunteers to help maintain the garden, harvest, and package before being given away.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered. It takes a team.
Mr. Stone, Ms. Fegley, Ms. Forsyth, and Mr. Kane planting some peppers!
