>Hi, 
>I'm helping with the design of a 7000 sq ft interactive cross-curricular 
>learning garden for an urban elementary school in Kalamazoo, MI (Zone 
>5/6). Do you know of any resources in design of annual vegetable raised 
>beds for small children (kindergarten and up). So far there has been 
>interest for pumpkins, squash, and gourds. It would be desirable for 
>enough room for the vines to stretch outward  or upward but still be 
>accessable to the kids, although space is limited to only 700 sq ft. Any 
>ideas? Also, any suggesstions of  vegetables that will come into 
>fruition in the fall besides what has been forementioned?
>Thank you for this resource,
