In 2010, we helped the Provincia de Tungurahua School in Padre Chupa, Ecuador create a school garden.   Pilar Salazar, the director, wanted to teach her students about growing vegetables and also to add nutritional content and variety to their school lunches.  The 8th grade class of Headwaters Academy spent a week in Padre Chupa and worked with parents and students to clear the area for the garden, build a fence to protect it from livestock, hoe the land, and plant cauliflower, carrots, broccoli, radishes, lettuce, and beets.  Produce from the garden is complementing the simple lunches that the children eat at school. The following year, Headwaters Academy returned and again worked alongside the Padre Chupa students in the garden.
