Turning soil,pulling weeds,and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids. And at first it is,says Abby Jaramillo,who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts,a school garden program at four low-income schools.The program aims to help students develop science skills,environmental awareness,and
healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo's students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores."The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,"she says."They come to us thinking vegetables are awful,dirt is awful,insects are awful."Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt,most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts'classes,at two middle schools and two high schools,include hands-o
n experiments such as soil testing,flower-and-seed dissection,tastings of fresh or dried produce,and work in the garden.Several times a year,students cook the vegetables they grow,and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes."“We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they're cating differently,"Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program's benefits go beyond nutrition.Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens.Besides,working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo's special education students,many of whom have emotional control issues."They get outside," she says,“and they feel successful.”
