The Montessori School’s Sustainable Garden Project

The Montessori School’s Sustainable Garden Project involves students in the stewardship of the school’s organic garden and landscape in a way that is wholly integrated with the school’s curriculum. We strive to encourage enthusiasm and wonder in learning by integrating classroom education with hands-on experience in the natural world. Students participate in food and garden-based activities that are interwoven with grade-appropriate math, science, social studies, and arts curricula. Our program is designed to educate students about the interconnected relationships of food, environment, ecology, communities, and cultural histories.
