Mass Ag in the Classroom is sponsoring their first Summer Gardening Conference, to be held on Thursday, July 18 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Holden Christian Academy in Holden. All workshops will offer connections from the School Garden to the Classroom and the Curriculum. Learn how this school has modeled their whole curriculum on the garden and learn from educators at other schools how they integrate the garden into the curriculum. Three workshops will run concurrently through the day. There will also be the opportunity to harvest and prepare lunch from the school garden.
