One
part how-to guide, one part garden journey, and one part educational
adventure, this guide serves as a portal to the rich soils and seed beds
of the backyard garden. Guided by educator Ron Smith, young naturalists
will learn about planting and harvesting, the highlights of each season
in the garden, and the importance of biodiversity. Topics explored include
• community agriculture,
• composting,
• the fascinating world of
fungi,
• raising backyard chickens, and
• beekeeping.
Adventures in Backyard Gardening will engage
children from age eight through early teens to develop their interest in
growing food, understanding nature’s role in our health, and becoming
lifelong participants in the earth’s bounty. Supported by illustrations and
photographs, easy-to-follow plans for planting and facts about food and
nature come together to show how working in the garden can be a true
adventure!
