Hello! Welcome to the official blog for Oakland International High School's Community Garden and Wellness Program! My name is Liza Jade Richheimer. I am one of the founding teachers at OIHS. This year thanks to a generous family foundation, I am lucky enough to be the coordinator of the Community Garden and Wellness Program.
My goals for the program are: to build and grow on-site gardens with students through science classes and after-school programs, to run after-school bike club twice a week, to teach a cooking class and a winter yoga class, to support Oakland Unified School District's mission of improving their cafeteria food, and to create a culture of environmental stewardship at our school.

Here are a few photos of the beginning of the garden. Clay Mu, Hel Say and Tenzin harvesting some tomatoes from an old garden planted by Refugee Transitions. Soybeans that Ms. Thi started and gave to us. Tenzin in the sunlight. Free soil at sunrise from the city of Berkeley.
