Garden-Based Learning Program
GARDEN-BASED LEARNING PROGRAM
The Garden-Based Learning Program is an evidence-based practice that empowers youth to grow their own food while implementing Science, Technology, Research, Engineering, Art, and Mathemetics (STREAM) academic activities. Topics range from soil science, entomology, composting, sustainability, botany, tool safety, intercropping, and waste reduction. The Garden-Based Learning Program curriculum strongly emphasizes reducing childhood obesity/malnutrition and environmental stewardship.
