We are all familiar with how easily children connect with nature, and their imagination seems inextricably linked to the way in which they engage in the physical world. Arguably the shortest distance between distraction and attention in the classroom is by using natural world processes and ecosystem relationships as teaching tools. Roots Foundation has three primary tools to help reduce this gap:


*Outdoor classroom development.

*Garden-based lesson plans that satisfy state-mandated curriculum.

*Ongoing teacher training to demonstrate how to best use the outdoor classrooms and plans.

The Roots Teachers' Lounge is postponed for the rest of the year. Due to the increasing numbers of Covid cases, we think it is best to focus on developing the space and experience, and we will let you know as soon as we start again. Please feel free to connect with us to share your ideas and resources, as we will be collaborating to create this community table focused on improving schools in our area by teaching through food-focused, project-based learning.

These plants will go in their new raised beds and hoop house this fall and were donated by 7 different local growers. Let’s here it for community engagement! Special thanks to Jeannie Dunn of Redmoon Herbs and Jordan Diamond of feast ❤️
