The School Garden Network's Grow Kit Program was created to support high-output school gardens. This program offers three curated grow kits, one for each season—Spring, Fall, and Winter. Each GROW KIT could include an assortment of garden starts, seeds, essential gardening materials, and resources thoughtfully designed to support and enrich school gardens. In addition, our kits include access to detailed crop information from SGN's Harvest of the Month Program and a selection of classroom-friendly seasonal garden recipes from SGN's Cooking From the Garden Program.
