The guide is comprehensive yet simple to follow and full of inspirational ideas.” —Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder
“Finally, it’s here: a practical, concise blueprint for funding, building, planting, and maintaining a school garden. This book should be required reading for any teacher or parent who truly cares about raising a new generation of healthy eaters.” —Novella Carpenter, author of Farm City: the Education of an Urban Farmer
“At a time when we are in grave danger of boring our naturally curious children with drill-and-kill memorization, here is a powerful hands-on guide that will make learning come alive in the living laboratories of school gardens. Bravo Arden and Rachel for improving the learning landscape, even as you are promoting our children’s health!” —Delaine Eastin, California Superintendent of Public Instruction

With this book, you can help kids reclaim a piece of neglected play yard and transform it into an ecologically rich garden that nourishes children, parents, teachers, and your community for years to come:
