Summary:

Today’s lesson, Researching Vegetables to Grow, is a great way to get students excited about the next upcoming gardening season. It’s also a good opportunity for those students who are learning from home to stay connected to their schoolyard garden and if you as a teacher are trying to decide what to order for summer, let the students decide! You’ll get buy-in from students, because they’re choosing what to grow and they’ll get to become familiar with some vegetables they may not have heard of before. Win, win!

Additional Resources: 

A few options for conducting your research include:

  • KCCG’s Vegetable Info Sheets
  • KCCG’s Seeder’s Digest
