Introduction to the School Garden movement

The school garden movement is thriving throughout Hawaii and creating real-life, hands-on educational programs for students of all ages. Learn about programs that teach local students and their families to grow nutritious,organic fruits and vegetables - on any budget,in any community or living space.

Nio Kindla,Kirk Surry,Kathy Becklin,and Kerry Wilkins,co-founders of Grow Some Good - Educational School Gardens on Maui (www.GrowSomeGood.org) - will discuss school gardens as learning centers for new gardeners; how school gardens inspire better nutrition choices and greater access to organic fruits and veggies for an entire community; and how to get funding to help fund your community-driven garden projects.

As part of the evening, 'Project: Plant It!' volunteers will share ready-to-transplant organic and heirloom garden starts,planted by student gardeners at Kihei Elementary School and Lokelani Intermediate School.

Note: We aim to have a "trash free" event and encourage folks to bring their own bowl and utensils. And,if you like,a comfortable chair. It was standing room only last month!
