VITAL PEOPLE: A Victoria non-profit is growing food underground at a local elementary school. Tess van Straaten reports.

Grade five students Jada and Blue show us how they’re growing plants without dirt.

“I’ve learned quite a bit, like how fast plants grow, how to germinate them, how to grow them all around,” adds classmate Blue Heal “This is a very meaningful project and I think it models so many good things,” Glenlyon Norfolk grade five teacher Sarah Wallace explains. “It models excellent collaboration, it models service, all things they are going to go on and use in their later lives.
