I wanted to share this opportunity that you can share with your teachers
and look like a rock star!
UIUC is offering a free course that will help you start a school garden.
See the information below from Dale Kehr.
*Growing School Gardens - Free Online course*
This self-paced online course will teach you how to incorporate a garden
into the school environment. One topic will be released each week with an
optional virtual meeting once a month. You will have a garden plan to get
your school garden project started at the end of the course.
Topics include:
- Building a garden team
- Establishing a garden plan
- Selecting a curriculum
- Practicing good food safety
- Identifying nutrition from the garden
- Determining what to grow
- Supporting harvest activities
- Funding and grant writing resources
- And much more!
