    I defintely think schools should teach gardening. We need to give back to the earth what we may have taken.

    A gardening class in public schools would be cool. I'm actually kind of surprised that we don't have any gardening classes in my school system...as this IS North Dakota.

    I am surprised too since you are in North Dakota. But perhaps the school budgets are really in crisis. I find it sad here in California that music and the arts have been removed from a lot of schools.

    I agree with all of you. Gardening should be taught. I made some kind of gardening at school. It was pretty fun and lovely.
