Keller Regional Gifted Center is a school for elementary grade students, located right here in Mt. Greenwood. Elizabeth Bruhns and Nancy Kreith met with the principal and a devoted parent at the school on January 11, 2007. The school has developed a garden plan, which includes a hummingbird habitat; butterfly garden, small vegetable plot and outdoor classroom. The U of I Extension will be assisting the school with the design layout, grant writing and installation.We hope to fund and construct three raised beds for growing vegetables.
