From the Ground Up

From the Ground Up is Wonderland’s school garden program.  Learning in our organic garden integrates classroom studies with hands-on experiences in the natural world and encourages enthusiasm and wonder. Garden activities engage students in standards-based lessons interwoven with grade-appropriate math, science, social studies, art, and a healthy dose of fun.
 
In the garden, students learn about the interconnected relationships of food, the environment, animals, ecology, communities, and cultural histories. FTGU provides experiences that enhance and expand upon what students are learning in class and an enriching community experience as they themselves grow.
 
Due to changes on our campus, our garden program is currently being re-imagined.  We hope to have an active gardening program back again soon.
