PA Horticultural Society Hosts Green City Teachers Basic Training 5-Session Course Starting Oct. 23

The PA Horticultural Society will host a 5-session training course beginning October 23 for individuals interested in becoming Green City Teachers.

Green City Teachers is a course that uses experiential learning (yes, get your hands dirty!) to help teachers, educators, administrators and others gain the skills to integrate horticultural and environmental education into curricula, after-school programs, and service-learning projects.

Topics include basic horticulture, STEM and greening in the classroom, food gardening, indoor gardening, and habitat gardens. For educators of pre-school and K- 12.

Open to anyone working with kids.  You do not need to be a teacher and you do not need to work in Philadelphia to participate.

The sessions will be held October 23, 30 and November 6, 13 and 20.
