Did you know vegetables do not originally come from cans? Many of my 3rd grade students in our urban St. Louis school do not know where their food comes from. Many have never seen a garden, much less a farm! Our school is surrounded by asphalt, concrete and buildings. Many students live in apartments with no room for gardens and no one to care for even potted plants. A couple local parks add some green grass and scraggly bushes to the neighborhood agriculture, but most of my students miss out on experiencing the daily beauty and life present in the plant world.
