Most children today are disconnected from agriculture, nutrition and the natural world. A school garden provides an outdoor classroom that cultivates an awareness of our finite resources, reinforces values of environmental stewardship, helps students understand concepts of nutrition and health, and connects children to the natural world.The first half of this book is about creating and developing the garden space, while the second half provides guidance for building and sustaining an accessible, inexpensive school garden program over time. Packed with strategies, to-do lists, detailed lesson plans, easy recipes, and tricks of the trade for grades K-8, this is the complete school-garden handbook for parents, teachers and administrators. Softcover, 223 pages. Ages: Adult.
