Hi, I'm sorry if this has already been discussed, I'm new to forum and not sure how to search past threads.
We have a lot of international and passing-through families at our school in a university town in WV that are only here for a few years and/or live in apartments and can't garden at home. We also have the problem of trying to get more parents involved to volunteer in the school gardens over the summer.
Has anyone tried a "Parent Bed" idea? Treating part of the school garden as a community garden in the summer months? Our town doesn't have community gardens to join. There are 3 parents already onboard that previously lived in cities and did community gardening (that's my background, too).
I'd love to hear stories if anyone else has tried this.
Thanks!
