The College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences has launched an online resource for Georgia teachers looking to start or take full advantage of their school’s gardens.
The UGA Extension School Garden Resource Center, launched this month during Farm to School month, offers teachers lesson plans that use school gardens to teach the curriculum prescribed in the Georgia Performance Standards.
The resource center serves as a one-stop shop for resources from other state Extension agencies, the USDA and nonprofit organizations that promote gardening in schools.
