Campbell School District Edible & Native Gardens
Living Classroom
About the Project
The Open Space Authority helped to fund Living Classroom’s partnership with Campbell Unified School District to implement their Environmental Literacy Initiative called "Champions for Change.” This project focuses on designing, installing and maintaining new and enhanced edible and native habitat gardens on all Campbell Unified School District campuses and providing garden-based lessons across all grade levels with the aim of connecting students to nature and the sources of their food and graduating environmentally literate students by 8th grade.
So much of what we do is rewarding. Parents tell us things like, 'Thank you! My child refused to eat vegetables, and now she wants me to buy her squash!’
