Grow your own food

[Andrea]

Should children be taught how to grow food as part of their schooling?

This is already 50 years and longer a tradition in Dutch schooling. Children learn not only how to produce their own vegetables and honey, they also learn biology, latin names and expressions,difference between biological/natural growing and growing for massproduce.. Age of nine to 12 years.

Most DEFINITELY KIDS today have no clue were there food comes from they really need too know that u cant just drop a seed in the dirt and it will grow they need too know the basics 9 out of 10 kids think that everything comes from the grocery store but they have no clue that it all comes from farmers .This was taught when i was in school and it was also taught at home from my grand parents and i am thankful that i learned this because my garden was always beautiful and green with healthy plants.
