Students of Mr. Mulligan's environmental science class were seen on Thursday afternoon, after school,  hard at work, getting dirty and communing with Mother Nature. The students, under Mr. Mulligan's guidance, are planning and planting a garden. The garden is being funded by a particular grant.
The grant is sponsored by Njfarmschools.org and Edible Jersey.com. The garden has to be completed in the 2011-2012 school year and submitted for approval by June 1st. The garden must be on a raised bed, and maintained by students. Vegetable's and herbs will be grown in the garden and the produce will be donated to the community. The garden will be an important educational tool for Paramus Catholic.
