Cherokee Charter Academy's Learning Garden
The garden is part of CCA's STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) Initiative. CCA is working toward state STEM certification.
With the guidance of Cherokee County Master Gardeners, fourth graders at Cherokee Charter Academy constructed a raised bed for the school’s Learning Garden. Students measured and marked off a square foot garden and outlined the newly created blueberry & strawberry plot with pavers. Supplies for the school’s Learning Garden are funded through the school’s adopt-a-brick program. CCA also has a partnership with the River Church Farmers Market’s “Power of Produce” program.
