Garden in the Box

IMG_1830.JPG

The Garden Project is a Project Based Learning (PBL) program predicated on Bruner’s cognitive theory that places students’ intuition at the center of the learning experience. Knowledge is acquired through age-appropriate inquiries of the natural world thanks to the Garden in the Box, a portable box seasonal, edible plants grown and nurtured by students.

This Webinar is all about showing children, parents & teachers how to create a small edible garden by transforming a small box (30cm x 20cm x 20cm) into a vegetable garden box, made up of vegetables and herb seedlings.

Garden in the Box is a fantastic instructional medium allowing teachers and parents to better manage their time, reduce their costs and give children full responsibility over the growth of the garden.
