About the Program: 

Pittsburgh Linden draws its diverse student body from the entire city of Pittsburgh. Many students have no gardening experience so far. A garden on the school grounds will enable Linden teachers to provide hands-on projects for the students. These projects will include lessons in nutrition biology culture history geography language (German and Chinese) social science. For the first year we are planing to have each classroom for grades K-4 (15 total)to grow one fruit or vegetable.
