ONE earth film festival 2018

"Hatch Grows and Gives" film earned recognition at the 2018 One Earth Film Fest.

In early 2018, the Green Team partnered with the Hatch Patch (along with video expertise from Mr. Righeimer!) to create a short film titled "Hatch Grows and Gives" that was entered in the One Earth Film Festival. The film shows how the Hatch Patch teaches students about gardening and also donates fresh produce to the local food pantry. The film earned special recognition and was screened at an event during the film festival.

The Hatch Patch

As good stewards of the earth and our environment, Hatch students, faculty, administrators and families spend time in our Hatch Patch garden planting, weeding, and learning all about what it takes to grow your own food.

During the school year we get classes involved, we need a team for helping to teach the kids and we very much need a team to keep the garden going all summer!

Join the Hatch Patch Team!
