I haven't heard of this School Garden movement before, but despite this article it sounds great! I'd love my kids to have an opportunity to do this at school here in Australia.

There is nothing more satisfying than picking some fresh tomatoes or a big zucchini out of my garden.

You all should try it!

If you are in Melbourne you can take a look at Stephanie Alexander's [0] effort setting up Kitchen Garden Foundation. [1] There are gardens in Collingwood ~ http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/sets/72157607256687360... and St.Kilda and a few more places. Alternatively you can investigate how to get your school (Victoria only) ~ http://www.kitchengardenfoundation.org.au/grants-goforyourli... The "garden" to "plate", slow food idea is important for food literacy.
