- Windermere uses its feeder schools for their compost too as well as its own compost material
- The aquaponics system sounded very interesting and fairly unique for a school
- A small fruit orchard. Several schools have had vegetable gardens, however A fruit orchard would be a very interesting aspect.
Questions
- Is a fruit orchard something West Van high or Rockridge could consider?
- What are the benefits and drawbacks of an aquaponics system
Next time I'm at my school compost, I will see how we recruit people to help out with our garden and compost.
We have been fairly explicitly forbidden from having an orchard as cool as it would be.
ReplyDeleteThe aquaponic system is very cool. It does need a constant circulation pump though so it does need a power supply and quite a bit of monitoring.
Let me know what you find out about recruiting composters. We could use more of that here!
