or

Students will be taught gardening skills including but not limited to garden planning and prep, seeding, transplanting, compost making, wildlife identification and observation. 

Each week will cover a different topic relating to soil health and vegetable production. The younger kids can expect an exploratory farm experience while the older kids will be doing more hands-on gardening activities. Everyone will have an opportunity to plant a seed and nurture it to harvest. Every lesson is developed to engage each student in exploring scientific and mathematical practices as well as creative activities such as building, crafting, storytelling, etc. 

We do expect your students to get dirty from time to time. All efforts are made to keep them clean but seeding, bed prep, and putting plants in the ground can sometimes get messy. Wear clothes that can get dirty.

Each garden club member will be provided with garden gloves and tools. 

Driving/parking - parents can drop their kids off at the farm at or just before 3:30 on the scheduled day.
