About the Riverside School Gardens:
 
Today, Riverside School is the home of one of the largest public school gardens in New Jersey, including “outdoor classrooms” such as vegetable and herb gardens, raised beds, active composting, and pollinator and tea gardens.  Through a garden residency funded in large part by the PTO, Riverside students pre-K through grade 5 learn in the gardens on a regular basis, enjoying hands-on lessons in science, mathematics, language arts, environmental stewardship, community service and more.  Our children plant, tend, harvest and taste - experiencing real food as it grows in nature.  We host tours and workshops for staff, parents and volunteers from all over New Jersey, sharing lessons, and giving members of our larger community a beautiful view of what it’s possible to do with a relatively small budget and many willing hands.
