When Wendy Baker, history and garden teacher at HAAS Public Charter School in Pahoa, and Debbie Millikan, Sustainability Specialist at ʻIolani School in Honolulu created this School Garden Talk Story series, it was designed to support teachers and educators through the 2019/2020 school year. After many successful gatherings and meaningful connections these talks continue for all school garden advocates on the third Thursday of every month at 4pm.

Thursday November 19: Using Distance Learning Pedagogy to Strengthen Sense of Place – How can we awaken a strong sense of place during this difficult time of distance learning? Hear from curriculum experts sharing and developing best practices for Hawaii’s school garden educators.
