Garden Educator Network
Successful school gardens require well-informed educators that can learn from and support each other. That’s why we launched the Central Oregon Garden Educators Network in the Fall of 2016.
Since then we have organized events to come together to provide trainings, networking events for peer-to-peer learning and resource sharing; and garden tours.

We are recognized by the Oregon Farm to School and School Garden Network as a Regional Hub Lead for Central Oregon.
We work closely with regional hubs around the state for both school garden education and farm to school procurement. This role, as well as our role as a FoodCorps Service Site, is furthering our commitment and ability to serve our local school garden efforts, as well as deepening our experience in the local, statewide, and national Farm to School & School Garden movement.
Through our role as the school garden education regional hub lead, we will continue to organize Garden Educator Network meet-ups, provide technical assistance to teachers parents and schools with school garden questions, send out periodic emails with local events and resources, and stay up to date with statewide and national efforts to further our commitment and ability to serve our local school garden efforts.
