In our garden at Yarden, there are flowers that attract butterflies as well as other nectar plants. There is also a worm farm that expedites the process of making compost, which is used to fertilize the soil we plant in. The Yarden farming project was introduced in order to teach the school’s students and the local community how to grow and consume fruits and vegetables using cutting-edge agricultural technologies. We’ll be glad if you come and get to know us.
