School Gardens
Our GROWING GARDEN TEACHERS series aims to equip garden educators with the technical skills, support and curriculum materials they need run integrated garden science and nutrition education programs at their schools.
In collaboration with The Office of the State Superintendent of Education Office of Health and Wellness, we offer both a Fall and Spring two-day intensive workshop covering all aspects of a garden educator’s position, from technical garden skills and lesson planning, to managing classes and cooking with kids.
In addition, we manage a monthly professional development training series for school garden coordinators, which seeks to create a structured sharing of best practices and fosters a strong support network of teachers working in this field.
