Re: youth food garden curriculums

Saskia,

Check out TWIGS: Teams With Intergenerational Support.  It is a youth development curriculum developed by the University of California Cooperative Extension Service focusing on gardening and nutrition.  The program is intergenerational, but all of the lessons in the curriculum can stand on their own.  My information about the program (I am not sure how up to date it may be) is that the project director is Marilyn Johns the phone number is (650) 726-9059.  Good luck.

gardening club, and I was wondering if anyone knew of
anything like that out there.  I've found a few, but
if anyone had any tips for me, I'd greatly appreciate
it!  Thanks!
