The Buulo Adeed school garden is located in the village of Buulo Adeed. It was established in 2014 and currently has 315 students: 129 boys and 186 girls. The school garden size is approximately 4 jibaals, slightly less than ¼ acres. The crops that are grown include ground nuts, beans, cucumber, sesame and maize. The school students prepare the garden and work on it on a daily basis, divided into two groups. Teachers encourage their students to learn how to produce crops, since the country is a tropical country and different types of crops can be grown there. The school garden has 27 active members: 3 are teachers, one female and two male, but the rest are students who are knowledgeable in weeding, managing and sowing methods. The production of the garden is sold in the village of Shalambood and the money earned is used to rehabilitate the school.
The students who are not involved in the cultivation of the garden sometimes visit and practice how to manage it, so as to have the necessary knowledge to create other gardens in the village.
