A Catholic school in London has turned its horticulture lessons into meals for the homeless.
St Gregory’s Catholic Science College in northwest London educates nearly 1,000 children, aged 11-18. Many of the students volunteer for social and environmental work.
This year, horticulture students grew pumpkins from seed in the summer term and harvested their fruit in early October. The pupils used the pumpkins, along with thyme from their garden, to make soup. They sent that soup to London’s Ealing Abbey Soup Kitchen, an ecumenical initiative of service for the city’s homeless population.
