Be a Friend to your school garden...

There are plenty of ways to help out and be a friend to your child's school garden. Here are just a few ideas;

  • volunteer to teach food culture in the classroom
  • volunteer to assist in planting seeds in the classroom
  • donate seeds, soil, jiffy pots
  • donate time
  • donate lumber and assist in creating raised beds
  • learn about how gardening can benefit your child
  • donate Canadian tire money to your school so they can purchase equipment and seeds
  • assist in preparation of food from the garden
  • volunteer to help during summer vacation period to water and tend the garden
