UGA VISTA-2021 Grow It Know It Summer Associate
 
 
 
The "Grow It Know It" program is a collaboration between the University of Georgia, the Clarke County School District, and the Barrow County School System. As part of the larger school garden VISTA initiative (focused on year-long programming, sustainability, composting, gardening, and instruction), the Grow It Know It summer program engages elementary and middle school students during the summer learning period, a particularly crucial time period during this pandemic year. Each week for 10 weeks of summer programming, Summer Associates will work with other AmeriCorps Service members and school, city, community, and UGA staff in all aspects of summer programming, including participant supervision and education; curriculum development and delivery; hands-on gardening, harvesting, and composting; food preparation and preservation techniques; teamwork and “soft skills” development; and educational components.
