Abstract
Growing our Future is a description of my
experiences while creating a school garden for a
local cooperative preschool, as well as a guide for
others hoping to design similar programs. In
addition, | provide sample lessons geared toward
teaching garden ecology and urban sustainability
to preschoolers.
My hope is that this paper can serve as both an
inspiration for others who would like to take
teaching out of the classroom and into nature—
and as a rudimentary handbook for how to do so.
