About me

The Berkeley Unified School District's Garden-Based Learning Program is a district-wide program that provides hands-on education in 16 school gardens as a tool to support student's academic success and well-being. We provide a whole child approach to education that offers young people opportunities to connect to their natural and food environments, their peers and educators, and themselves as potential leaders and lifelong learners.
