I am an office manager at a local elementary school in Ontario which has been implementing an integrated eco environmental outdoor education program for the past 4 years. Our kindergarten to grade 6 students have been growing vegetable gardens, composting, planting trees, hatching and restocking salmon and many other projects with the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Credit Valley Conservation Authority. We have been recognized with several national awards for this initiative and I am so thrilled to be a part of this learning experience. It's so inspiring to witness our youth get on board and "become the change we wish to see in the world." More than ever our future depends on it! Thank you for sharing such an uplifting video Nancy.

If you have access to a deck, a roof, a patch of ground no larger than a flower bed or far more space, you can. Any reasonably intelligent person with time or patience or internet access can learn as much about soil and gardening as the most experienced farmer knew a hundred years ago--putting it into practice takes time however, today is the day to begin a garden.

Just a few days ago I dropped off my teenage son to volunteer on an organic farm that has a garden as well as animals. He'll be living there for 3 weeks. He has had some experience with gardens but he will be getting a real educate and also helping out the farm owners. It makes sense for us to be growing healthy foods and taking care of our bodies and souls too. Thank you, Francesca Hi Nancy,
