Grow Good Health

I am so excited about the upcoming school year.  Not only are my boys back in school and I get my days back to myself again, but I have all ready started working along side our local schools.  I am working with the teachers to grow gardens in their classrooms.  Last year, I did a trial in my son’s kindergarten class and it went over so well, that it has started to spread across the district.  Kids really do eat what they grow.  

This year, I am working closer with the teachers to integrate this amazing experience into the curriculums.  From starting the seeds, caring for the gardens themselves, to drawing photos and noticing the daily changes.  Everything from calculating the nutrients to learning about your 5 senses are lessons to learn with growing your own food.  The best part, the kids start eating healthy greens!  

So as everyone else is harvesting their outdoor gardens, the kids in the elementary schools will be starting their seedlings and watching them grow.  The excitement and passion I see in the kids as they learn to grow their own food is overwhelming.  Check out my "Garden's in Schools" page for updates throughout the school year.  And contact me if you would like to help your local schools grow gardens too!  Let’s plant some seeds, and watch them grow!
