Gardens are incredible learning landscapes—especially for children. Gardening encourages the development of critical early learning skills in young children. For older students, gardens provide dynamic learning environments in which to explore math, science, history, and culture. This presentation invites you to reimagine traditional gardens as powerful living classrooms.
