GardenABCs is a forum for parents, educators and community members seeking guidance, resources, fundraising, networking and teaching support to start and maintain learning gardens.

 

Whether they’re school- or community-based, urban farms or native land restoration projects, gardens are valuable teaching tools.

 

The goal of this share-site is to bring people together to promote the environment, healthy eating, exercise, sustainability, self-reliance, core values, academics, and charitable giving through garden initiatives.

 

Our inspiration comes from years spent volunteering at a successful elementary school harvest garden, and the many incredibly talented and passionate educators, parents and advocates we’ve met along the way.
