Pacific Northern Academy Garden Ribbon Cutting
Event Description: Please join Pacific Northern Academy students, staff and families as we celebrate the revitalized PNA Student Garden with a ribbon cutting ceremony on the last day of school! This Gold Star Project Based Learning (PBL) initiative is growing its roots deeper into the Anchorage community and we want you to be part of it. PNA students have been cultivating more than just produce. Through hands-on learning in the garden, they are developing real-world skills in sustainability, nutrition, and community partnership. This season, the garden’s impact will extend beyond campus through three exciting local collaborations: • Beans Café – Fresh produce from the PNA garden will be donated to support the Children’s Lunchbox program, helping feed Anchorage’s most vulnerable youth. • Blue Market AK – Select PNA-grown produce will be available for purchase through this beloved local market. • Market Juice – Scraps from Market Juice will be incorporated into the garden’s composting program, closing the loop on local food waste. Following the ribbon cutting, guests are invited to stay and celebrate the end of the school year at PNA’s Last Day of School Cookout, joining students, families, and community guests. Doors open at 3:00 PM, ribbon cutting at 3:15. This event is free and open to the public.
