Your students can grow vegetables and herbs from items you'd normally throw in your compost bucket. With little effort and a pinch of creativity you can devise some very imaginative indoor gardens from your kitchen leftovers! Kids love this idea and it's a great way to reinforce the sustainable living concepts of recycling and reusing.

This is a publicly available resource developed by the Little Green Thumbs program, a classroom gardening program. Learn more about the Little Green Thumbs program in your region.
