Over the next three months, I am embarking on an exciting journey to learn how to garden, starting with germinating seeds and progressing to planting vegetables outdoors. Growing food is a powerful skill—it connects us to the earth, promotes sustainability, and fosters a deep sense of accomplishment.
As a future teacher, I’m passionate about equipping children with practical, hands-on skills that they can carry with them for life. Learning to grow their own food is an empowering way to teach responsibility, environmental stewardship, and self-sufficiency. Through this project, I hope to lay the foundation for one day inspiring my students to explore the joys of gardening and discover the magic of nurturing something from seed to harvest.
