GardenABCs.com, a new, locally produced website, is helping educators, parents and local advocates start and maintain school and community gardens.
Interest in "learning gardens" is blossoming as way to help children and adults reconnect with nature while promoting sustainability, healthy eating, core values and life skills, self-reliance, math / science / art, and more.
From butterfly to "windowsill" gardens, pond habitats to native plant restorations, gardens are incredible teaching tools, but often overwhelm the inexperienced gardener. With so many excellent programs to model after, why recreate the wheel each time? www.GardenABCs.com aims to give people confidence and support when taking on these worthwhile projects.
Visitors to the share-site can access and contribute details about learning garden projects, curricula, events, useful links and resources. Visitors also can subscribe to a monthly e-zine and post questions and suggestions in the forum.
Join the GardenABCs.com community! Your expertise will help others share the positive influence of gardening.
