Fostering Lifetime Gardeners & Naturalists Workshop Series

with the Early Childhood Community Development Centre (Niagara Region)

If you’re interested in Early Childhood Education, consider joining me and the ECCDC as we explore how we can foster children to become lifetime gardeners and naturalists. Here’s the scoop:

We know we want to help children connect to nature, and gardening with kids would be great, but let’s get real with where we are and what we can do to achieve these lofty goals! Join us for this exciting workshop series to explore:

How to further integrate and leverage any gardening that you already do and/or have learned about;

Working through blocks or issues* that limit food gardening and or nature-based programming that you’d like to do – or do better – where you work or in your career (*institutional, professional or even personal).
Hands-on activities that work for getting started or for growing a stronger food garden program
Design elements and activities that work in small spaces
Planning and scaffolding – from today’s practices to the big goals
