Students from Atlanta’s Springdale Park Elementary were scheduled to supply the produce Monday for Murphy’s restaurant in Virginia Highland. This season, each class in kindergarten through third grade has been taking care of lettuce, kale, chard, sorrel, and collard plants on the school’s rooftop garden. Murphy’s invited the students to harvest the greens for Monday’s menu, said Jenna Mobley, the school’s environmental education teacher. Info: www.atlanta.k12.ga.us
