Getting
Going Growing acts as a resource clearinghouse
for help with getting school gardens growing.
We connect schools with providers of in-kind donations
such as garden supplies or irrigation help.
We
also provide assistance with specific garden needs.
Below are listed some of the skills and help we
can provide along with the persons that can best

Seeds
and plant propagation

*Barbara and Jane |
|
*Barbara and Jane will work with teachers and students to help
them pick out seeds. Then they will propagate the plants in
Gamble Garden's greenhouse. Students can experience the process
on the web or hands on at Gamble Garden. Or you can simply
request certain plants. Good web sites to explore are Life Lab
and kidsGardening.org.
