Growing Healthy Kids

Growing Healthy Kids (GHK) is a garden-themed, nutrition education curriculum best aligned to Common Core Standards for students in 2nd and 3rd grades. GHK was developed at Oregon State University for use in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) program of Oregon. GHK includes seven (7) lessons with options for an outdoor, indoor, or hybrid (combination of activities from both mural and indoor gardens) garden, to give students opportunities to learn basic plant parts and try a variety of fruits and vegetables. Along with core journaling and gardening activities, lessons include food tasting activities, recipe print-outs, physical activity options, coloring sheets, and suggestions for supplemental storybooks to go with lesson themes. The GHK curriculum may be used free of charge, as long as Oregon State University Extension Service is credited appropriately: the Oregon State University Extension Service logo and a statement crediting Oregon State University Extension Service must appear on all handouts and other GHK materials. View Resource »

Seed Balls

Seed balls are small bundles of seeds, clay, and soil or compost.  Although seed balls have been around since ancient times, they were rediscovered in the 1930s by the Guerilla Gardening movement as a way to covertly introduce vegetation by simply tossing the seed balls (or, on a large scale, dropping them from an airplane). This activity is great for all learners and fun and inexpensive way to learn about native plants. View Resource »
