We would like to give a huge ‘Thank you’ acknowledgement to the David M Cox PTA for making this all possible. We would also like to acknowledge Miss Davis and the Garden Committee for guiding our staff and students this first year, harvesting each week, and for activities beyond their contracted day!

Green Our Planet Guest Chef: Making Pizza

Our 5th grade students received a special experience as our guest chef, Chef Ryan from Bobby Flay’s Mesa Grill in Caesars, used fresh basil from our our DMC Garden to make pizzas! This was an exciting treat and a wonderful way to enjoy the fruit of our labor in the DMC Garden.

Tremendous appreciation for Chef Ryan Calvo from Bobby Flay’s Mesa Grill @ Caesar’s Palace for coming in and doing a demonstration at our school! Chef Calvo made tomato soup with some ingredients from our very own garden!
