Programs on the South Fork
The fabulous East Hampton High participants in the South Forks’s inaugural Summer Program, along with Farmer Matt at Share the Harvest.
SUMMER PROGRAM for high school students / south fork location
From tending pollinator gardens and harvesting crops for food pantries to eradicating invasive plants and composting, intrepid high school students learn and grow together, leading the way to create healthier, more resilient communities.
East hampton High school pollinator garden
Part of the ReWIld Community Gardens Program, the pollinator garden was created in the Spring of 2023 by the EHHS Garden and Environmental Club members.
In the images above: After laying out the location, the first order of business was to smother the grass. How did the students do it? (In the final picture, the students snapped photos of the resident baby bunny napping in the new garden.)
East Hampton Compost
This program is a collaboration between ReWild Long Island and the Town of East Hampton, this program makes composting easy by supporting a range of solutions including food scrap drop-off locations, backyard composting and countertop composting.
ReWild Spring Plant Sale in Hampton Bays
The ReWild Native Plant Sales feature pesticide- and herbicide-free plants that are native to the Long Island area, offered at a great price.
