Spring: School Gardens Internship


Have you ever wanted to work with kids and teach science and nutrition through gardening? This spring we are sponsoring 4 students to get involved with school garden education in Santa Cruz! There will be $200 available for each student to implement a school garden project. Past projects have included the construction of an outdoor kitchen, a native plant garden, a garden greywater system, and a chicken coop!

You must be available Mondays from 9-2 pm for garden training days and additional site visits at Pajaro Valley Schools.

***Please fill out the application form and return to vvadakan@ucsc.edu by March 1st!***
