Description

Living Classroom's mission is to make education come alive and to empower the next generation by growing environmental champions, inquisitive learners, and healthy eaters who know where their food comes from. During Growing Gardener, young students will get their hands in the dirt to plant, harvest, and explore what makes up healthy soil. They will also use their creativity on garden-based craft and engineering projects, all while growing in their appreciation for the natural world around them. If you have any questions, please send them to teacher Alexis, alexisl@living-classroom.org or Derek Bryant, Recreation Coordinator, dbryant@santaclaraca.gov.
