    Hello KGC!

    We are launching a pilot run of our newest e-course Celebrating Cultural Inclusion in School Gardens on June 1st. Pilot participants will have free access to all 8 modules of the course throughout the month of June, and the ability to download all materials for future use. 

    About the Course:

    In collaboration with experienced garden educators from across the country, KidsGardening has created a curriculum of original lesson plans, growing guides, worksheets, and more designed to celebrate the intersections of garden education and culture with K through 6th-grade students. In this course, instructors will familiarize you with pedagogical principles for incorporating culture in garden education, a host of culturally significant food plants, and will provide context and insight into the lesson plans included in the curriculum. 

    The course is asynchronous and can be taken at your own pace throughout the month of June. All course materials will be accessible starting June 1st, but you can register today! As this is a pilot course there will be short evaluation surveys for each module and a final course evaluation so that we can gather your valuable feedback on how we might improve the course before we release it to the public. 

    Noel Nicholas of KidsGardening will be available for any and all questions, technical assistance needs, and concerns that you might have throughout the pilot experience via the course community discussion board or through direct contact at noeln@kidsgardening.org

    As a thank you for taking the course we are offering a coupon for digital resource downloads on KidsGardening.org! Instructions will be shared with participants in June.
