When it comes to learning, creating, or teaching, context is everything. Your context shapes the way you learn, the way you teach, the resources you have, and the unique gifts you can share with others. I’d love to get a sense of where you’re at right now — not to compare, but to understand the different paths we’re all walking. That’s why I’ve made this super simple poll — you just click the option that feels closest to your situation. No need to write a big post (unless you want to 😉). Your context matters, and by sharing it, we can start seeing how diverse and inspiring our community really is. 👉 Cast your vote below!

Hi all - for a long time now I’ve been thinking about what is the best way to learn about growing food. After playing around with a few ideas, I thought to myself - “What if the crop itself was the learning experience?!” So this is what I’ve done - I’ve picked 22 different edible crops that I like to eat and also want to improve my growing skills with and created individual cards for each. The ideas is, you pick a crop you like and start growing it using the info I’ve provided. I’m really digging the pixel art cards I’ve created, too! These are great for your own learning or as a way to get our students growing and learning in our LEARNING GARDENS! Each crop quest has an attached post for you to interact with as well. This means you can share your progress and the process of growing that crop with other members in the community. Over the coming weeks I’ll be adding to this classroom and creating content for each card! Stay tuned for some videos of me and my kids in our LEARNING GARDEN getting started on our Crop Quests! Enjoy! ☺️
