Thanks to leaders & funders of seedstlouis for visiting the Mann Global Garden today - which became the Dedication of our Mann Outdoor Classroom. Thanks to Mann winning a special grant (one of two schools in the City for next year), an educator from Seed St. Louis will be working with Mann students & teachers in 26-27 to incorporate the garden more fully into different subjects & topics. The 5th grade girls in litshopstl completed their dry erase easels for the outdoor classroom, too!! They look great!
Today, the Mann Student Garden Ambassadors picked radishes! 🫜🫜🫜

The Mann Outdoor Classroom has been a longtime coming - from a dream in 2024, our first Trivia Night in the fall of 2024, lots of bureaucratic wrangling with many different entities, help from members of Laborers 110 and countless Mann parents & community members, the Mann Outdoor Classroom will be officially dedicated tomorrow, Friday, May 8, at 1:30 pm as part of Seed St. Louis' School Garden Tour with Board members and leaders. Mann families & volunteers are welcome to attend. **We also have COFFEE CORNER Friday morning (tomorrow), Friday, May 8, 8:00 am - 8:45 am. 🐴 ❤️
