Southern Boone County School District R-1 Garden Educator
 
 
 
The Southern Boone Learning Garden project will simultaneously facilitate the emergence of a rural community partnership which actively promotes healthy lifestyle policies, programming, and infrastructure improvements, along with the expansion of an already robust public school gardening program providing quality nutrition education and increased access to healthy foods and safe outdoor activity for all students, faculty, and families in the community. Working together, the Southern Boone Learning Garden will serve as an exemplary model of a collaborative approach to community health needs in rural Missouri. Although started at the elementary level, the SBLG will patiently expand to encourage garden use at the middle and high schools by conducting garden lessons which clearly enhance classroom learning in multiple ways, offering high quality professional development workshops, and providing multiple resources to generate ideas and facilitate independent use of the gardens.
