Got Dirt? Gardening Initiative

Welcome!

The Got Dirt? Gardening Initiative trains teachers and childcare providers to start and maintain youth and school gardens. The class and related teaching aids give teachers and childcare providers the skills they need to establish and sustain successful school garden programs, even with Wisconsin’s short growing season.

School gardens create an active learning environment and increase children's knowledge and consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables.

For more information about this project, please contact Kristen Buettner, Got Dirt? Communications Coordinator, (920)391-4655 or Buettner_KM@co.brown.wi.us
