Youth focused Garden-based Learning resources

From Marcia Eames-Sheavly:

We have some exciting new project “supports” for you.  Knowing that some of you will be giving workshops for your volunteers, teachers, and other educators, I have put together a garden-based learning presentation that you can use in your counties.  It has been piloted in several settings; it will come with a one-page guide for its use, and a handout to accompany it.  Please let me know if you’d like a copy!  Please also let me know if you would like assistance with a garden-based learning workshop in your region.

As you’re aware, we’re pretty excited about our new living sculpture project, http://www.hort.cornell.edu/livingsculpture Two talented project assistants have been hard at work on the living sculpture project this summer, including creating a living sculpture “toolkit” to inspire an interest and direct people toward the website.  It contains a couple of informational/inspirational posters; a poster that instructs, in images, how to make the ever popular “sod sofa;” seeds, and other materials.  It’s at the printer currently, and we’ll be sending a kit to every county.  If you’re gearing up to do more with living sculpture, let us know if you’ll need more than one kit.
