As you may already know, one day a week schools have\u00a0After School Garden Clubs<\/strong>\u00a0and\/or\u00a0School Day Garden Programs<\/strong>\u00a0(during recess or scheduled class time). And yet one more way to say it:\u00a0After School Garden Clubs are 5 weeks long, and School Day Garden Programs are 10 weeks long.<\/em> There are some exceptions to this model, mostly involving schools where volunteer or teacher garden coordinators have stepped\u200b \u200bup and are facilitating garden programs without regular assistance from LCSG staff.<\/p>\n Take a look at the Spring Schedule below…<\/p>\n We are humbled and grateful for the ongoing support of this community. Our small staff is continually “building the plane as we are flying it”-\u00a0\u200balways \u200blearning how to\u200b better \u200bdistribute our time and resources more equitably in order to reach kids at all 18 School Gardens in Longview and Kelso. Your feedback and patience is appreciated and helpful as we make changes and try new things.<\/p>\n The School Gardens in this community are a result of many people saying, “yes!” to spaces for our kids to learn about real food, the natural world, and to practice being healthy, kind humans.<\/strong><\/p>\n Please stay tuned for information specific to your students’ School Garden as the season approaches.<\/p>\n
\nIn general, here’s the plan for the Spring Season:<\/p>\n\n
