Learn about gardening, greening, and the environment and how to incorporate them into the classroom or after-school activities. Green City Teachers is a five-session virtual course that uses experiential learning to give teachers, educators, parents, and mentors the background knowledge to pass gardening along to the next generation. Topics include basic horticulture, growing outdoors in winter, food gardening, light gardening, plant propagation, finding resources, and green career exploration for youth.
You do not need to be a teacher, and you do not need to work in Philadelphia to participate. This course is open to anyone working with kids.
