About National Children & Youth Garden Symposium
Gardens can be a common denominator and model for living and growing together. Whether we garden in a rural or urban setting, in a vacant lot or on a verdant plot we all work with plants. Our diversity in age, gender, skin color, ethnicity, religious affiliation, and education only make the experience richer. The simple truth is that gardens bring us together - they offer a level playing field, a safe haven, a place to share seeds, traditions, and ideas, a common ground for humanity.
Join leading national children’s and youth gardening experts, teachers, parents, volunteers, and youth to explore how gardens bring together diverse communities and foster curiosity, wonder, beauty, understanding, and acceptance. Let’s come together on this common ground, sharing our creativity and life experiences to forge a greener tomorrow for all to enjoy.
