Keiki Gardens

Children love to dig and plant and make things grow. They're fascinated by the life they see all around them in the garden - worms, butterflies, caterpillars, birds, and all the "creepy crawlies" in the soil. A child's home garden is more than just a vegetable patch. It's a place to explore, a place to hide, a place to let imagination run free.

And, Moms, don't tell your kids but it's also a place to get them started on a lifetime of healthy eating habits. (Shhhhhhh. Our secret!) Kids who grow their own vegetables are more likely to enjoy eating a wide variety of fresh foods.

What else can gardening teach your child? Well, for starters:
• Science • Math • History • Art • Life Cycles • Nutrition
• Patience • Observation • Flexibility • Design & Planning
• Community • Sustainability • Self-Sufficiency
• Appreciation for Nature • Respect for Life
... all disguised as FUN!

There's no better educational gift than a child's own garden.
