Got extra garden produce? We’d love to put it to good use!

As gardens are producing more than families can use, our Battle Creek High School culinary classes would be happy to take some of that extra produce off your hands! Students can use fresh garden produce for hands-on cooking experiences and educational purposes throughout the school year.

If you have extra vegetables, fruits, herbs, or other goodies, we’d be grateful for your donation!

📍 Produce can be dropped off at the high school.
📧 If you’d like to donate but need to make other arrangements, please email Mrs. O’Brien at brobrien@bcpsne.info.

Thank you for helping us give our students opportunities to learn, cook, and make the most of fresh, locally grown food!

Battle Creek Welding Students Are Looking for Projects! As a new school year gets underway, our Battle Creek welding students are ready to put their skills to work! We’re highlighting a few of the projects our students completed last year to give you an idea of the types of projects they can take on. Do you have a welding project, custom metal sign, or another metalworking idea you’ve been wanting to bring to life? Our students would love the opportunity to put their skills to work while gaining valuable, real-world experience. If you have a project in mind, please reach out to us! We’d love to hear your ideas and see if it’s a good fit for our students.
