Learning more ...

Last week I was fortunate enough to go to an Outdoor Classroom Symposium. I learned a great deal - not least that our project is moving along really well. We have some key problems - which are shared by many school gardens -
1. Encouraging teachers to take their students outside to teach.
2. Providing for on-going maintenance of the garden.
3. Ensuring the survival of the garden over the summer.

The conference has inspired me to think concretely about these issues - so look for some new development in the near future. If y'all have any ideas let me know.
