Everything you need to launch and run a thriving school garden — starting this fall — in one evening.

Imagine walking into the new school year with a clear plan, ready-to-use resources, and the confidence to grow a thriving school garden — without adding to your already full plate.

This 2.5-hour live online workshop is designed for Canadian teachers, school staff, parent volunteers, and community partners who want to start a school garden in 2025 by beginning the process this fall.

A complete digital toolkit to make planning, planting, and teaching easier
Strategies for funding, volunteer recruitment, and summer maintenance
50+ ready-to-use curriculum-based lesson plans for seasonal garden learning

Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to improve an existing garden program, this workshop will give you the clarity, confidence, and resources to make it happen.
