The Mustang Ace Program
Mustang ACE afterschool gardening program:
This project introduces students to basic horticulture knowledge and hands-on
practice. Students learn about sustainable practices and conservation of natural
resources like soil and water. We select gardening topics that address vegetable and
flower gardening, as well as water conservation, soils, composting, and using native
plants. We discuss and explore insects and their role in pollination
This project will take place weekly following the Marble Falls ISD school calendar with periodic breaks for seasonal changes and to plan and gather supplies. The Mustang Ace
gardening program is held at Spicewood Elementary on Tuesdays or Thursdays from 4:15-5:45. We work with small groups of 15 students in grades 1 st through 5 th in the format of a
gardening club. We coordinate with the campus Mustang Ace site coordinator.
We are looking for volunteers to come and help with the lessons. We would also like to have speakers present on a topic they are passionate about and would like to share
their knowledge with the students. If you have ideas about activities, we can do with the students let us know. If any of these opportunities speak to you, please reach out to us!
More information coming soon for the 2026 school year!
