Day School is one of six elementary schools in Westford with raised garden beds featuring fresh produce like kale, lettuce, carrots, and a variety of herbs. Students harvest the vegetables that are then used for school lunches. The raised garden beds were installed at each school through an initiative by Fresh Start Food Gardens and sponsored by Circle Health Care.
