Gardening at Taylor

Our Garden

O u r   M i s s i o n

Our garden is committed to educating our students, parents, and teachers while enhancing our school environment with a hummingbird habitat that produces a positive learning ecosystem.  Our school will create an outdoor learning classroom which allows students to experience hands-on science curriculum.  Our garden will enable students to be knowledgeable about native plants and wildlife in Nevada.

GARDEN PARTNERS

The Glen Taylor Garden continues to thrive thanks to the generosity of our community partners:

​

  • Brightview Landscaping

  • Green Our Planet

  • Lowes Home Improvement

  • Home Depot

  • Trader Joes

  • Star Nursery

 

Along with these partners we would like to thank our parents and teachers for their time and dedication to our garden.

iNSIDE THE gARDEN

We are thrilled to share that our Garden Club is off to a fantastic start this fall! Each Wednesday morning, 30 dedicated students gather before school to learn, explore, and take care of our school garden. With the help of our amazing volunteers, students are rolling up their sleeves to dig, plant, paint, and build.

 

What Students Are Doing​

Garden Projects: Students are helping construct new garden beds, planting seasonal crops, pulling weeds, and keeping our space clean and welcoming.

 

Farmers Market Station: Students are creating handmade items like painted rock cactus gardens and photo holders to sell at our Farmers Market. This helps raise funds for the garden while giving students hands-on experience in entrepreneurship.

 

Looking Ahead

As the season continues, Garden Club members will make important decisions about the future of our garden. Together, they’ll establish garden rules, plan for fall planting, and prepare for our Farmers Market during Trunk or Treat on October 30.

 

We are so proud of the ownership our students are taking in the garden and so grateful to our parent and community volunteers for helping us grow this program. The garden is becoming more than just a place to plant—it’s a space for teamwork, creativity, and learning.
