Item Description
Help us create a beautiful Teaching Garden with fencing and raised beds in the Ed Maples Park:
- Gardening can help improve social skills and behavior (Demarco, L., 1999)
- It can improve environmental attitudes and instill appreciation & respect for nature that lasts into adulthood (Skelly, S.M., 1998) (Lohr, V. & Pearson-Mims, C.H., 2005)
- Working in a garden helps kids make better nurtitional choices, improves attitudes towards vegetables, and increases interest in eating fruits & vegtables (Pothukuchi, K., 2004) (Lineberger, S.E. & Zajicek, J.M., 1999)
- Gardening encourages children to work collaboratively (Robinson, C.W. & Zajicek, J.M., 2005)
- Yes! We've done the research. Check out this website for source information: kidsgardening.org
- Our goal is to raise $10,000 in the online & live auction
