COMMUNITY DESIGN REAL SCHOOL GARDEN DESIGN EXPERTS WORK WITH SCHOOL STAFF, PARENTS, COMMUNITY MEMBERS, OUR CORPORATE FUNDING PARTNERS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THE KIDS THEMSELVES TO DESIGN A LEARNING GARDEN THAT'S FUNCTIONAL, BEAUTIFUL, AND TAILORED TO EACH SCHOOL'S SPECIFIC NEEDS. CHILDREN DESIGN THEIR DREAM GARDENS BY MEASURING OUT THE SPACE, PLOTTING THEIR DESIGNS OUT TO SCALE ON GRAPH PAPER, OR EVEN MAKING 3D MODELS. AFTER THE CHILDREN VOTE ON THEIR FAVORITES, OUR GARDEN EXPERT WORKS WITH ALL OUR PROJECT PARTNERS TO MAKE SURE THAT EACH GARDEN IS UNIQUELY TAILORED TO THE TEACHERS' NEEDS. BY INVOLVING EVERYONE WHO WILL BE USING AND CARING FOR THE GARDEN EARLY ON, THIS INCLUSIVE DESIGN PROCESS GENERATES A SENSE OF OWNERSHIP AND PRIDE. EVERYONE INVOLVED HAS A STAKE IN THE SUCCESS OF THE GARDEN, AND BECOMES INVESTED IN ITS USE, CARE AND MAINTENANCE. A THOUSAND PEOPLE PARTICIPATED IN OUR DESIGN PROCESS THIS YEAR! THE BIG DIG! AFTER OUR PARTNER SCHOOLS HAVE DESIGNED THEIR LEARNING GARDENS, IT'S TIME TO BUILD THEM DURING OUR BIG DIG! ON THE DAY OF THE BIG DIG, BETWEEN 200-300 VOLUNTEERS INCLUDING FUNDING PARTNERS, KIDS, THEIR PARENTS AND TEACHERS GET TO WORK, INSTALLING THE LEARNING GARDEN IN JUST ONE DAY. OUR BIG DIGS PROVIDE A TURNKEY DAY OF COMMUNITY SERVICE FOR OUR CORPORATE PARTNERS, AND REAL SCHOOL GARDENS TAKES CARE OF ALL THE PREPARATIONS, LAYING OUT THE PLANS AND MATERIALS AND PROVIDING THE EXPERTISE TO ENSURE THE BIG DIG GOES SMOOTHLY AND THE GARDEN IS BUILT TO LAST FOR YEARS TO COME.

| Desc | TEACHER TRAINING OUR ACCREDITED THREE YEAR TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAM PROVIDES CONTINUING EDUCATION TO TEACHERS IN OUR ON-SITE, HANDS-ON DEMONSTRATION SESSIONS IN A STANDARDS-BASED CURRICULUM DESIGNED TO ENGAGE STUDENTS IN SCIENCE, MATH, READING AND LANGUAGE ARTS. BEFORE THE GARDEN IS INSTALLED, TEACHERS RECEIVE LESSON PLANS ALIGNED WITH ACADEMIC STANDARDS, SO THEY'RE READY TO START USING THE GARDEN ON DAY ONE. REAL SCHOOL GARDENS THEN SENDS OUR CERTIFIED TEACHER-TRAINERS OUT TO THE SCHOOLS TO DEMONSTRATE LESSONS LINKED TO THEIR CORE CURRICULUM. 90% OF TEACHERS SAY THAT REAL SCHOOL GARDEN TRAININGS ARE DIRECTLY ALIGNED WITH CURRENT ACADEMIC STANDARDS AND OUR LESSONS ARE EASY TO IMPLEMENT WITH STUDENTS. SCHOOLS THAT ALREADY HAVE A LEARNING GARDEN MAY ALSO BENEFIT FROM OUR CURRICULUM AND OUR PROVEN TEACHER TRAINING SERVICES. REAL SCHOOL GARDENS TRAINED MORE THAN 931 TEACHERS THIS YEAR. IN ADDITION TO OUR ON-SITE LESSON DEMONSTRATIONS, WE ALSO HELD 21 OFF-SITE TRAINING SESSIONS FOR TEACHERS FROM MULTIPLE SCHOOLS. LEARNING GARDEN USAGE LIKE ALL GOOD EDUCATORS, WE KNOW THAT ATTENDANCE IS CRITICAL FOR SUCCESS, SO WE CAREFULLY TRACK HOW MANY TEACHERS AND STUDENTS USE THE GARDENS WE HELP CREATE. OUR MOST RECENT GROUP OF SCHOOLS IN THE REAL SCHOOL GARDEN PROGRAM SAW 58% OF THEIR TEACHERS USING THE GARDENS TO TEACH, AND 97% OF OUR GARDENS ARE WELL-USED AND WELL-MAINTAINED. IN FACT, GARDENS THAT HAVE BEEN IN OUR NETWORK FOR 10 YEARS ARE STILL GROWING STRONG. EVERGREEN SUPPORT REAL SCHOOL GARDENS PRODUCES LIFE-LONG LEARNING RESULTS BECAUSE WE INVEST HEAVILY IN LONG-TERM LEARNING GARDEN SUPPORT AND TEACHER TRAINING. EACH OF OUR 100 SCHOOLS WITH A REAL SCHOOL GARDEN ELECTS ONE "GARDEN COORDINATOR" AS THE SCHOOL'S POINT PERSON AND LEADER OF THE OUTDOOR LEARNING PROGRAM. AFTER ALL THE OTHER TEACHERS FINISH OUR RIGOROUS THREE-YEAR TRAINING PROGRAM, IT'S THE GARDEN COORDINATOR'S JOB TO ENSURE THE GARDEN IS IN TIP-TOP SHAPE, IS WELL-USED, AND CONTINUES TO THRIVE. THEY RECEIVE NEW PLANTS AND GARDEN SUPPLIES, PARTICIPATE IN CONTINUING EDUCATION SESSIONS, MEET WITH EXPERTS AND MENTORS, CONNECT WITH A NETWORK OF PEERS, APPLY FOR GARDEN ENHANCEMENT PROJECTS AND HOST CORPORATE VOLUNTEERS. REAL SCHOOL GARDENS EVEN HOSTS SEVERAL CELEBRATIONS EVERY YEAR TO HONOR ALL OUR DEDICATED PARTNERS. | Desc |

THESE INCLUDE: SCHOOLYARD HARVEST -- ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS PLANT AND GROW VEGETABLES AND HERBS, THEN PROFESSIONAL CHEFS SHOW KIDS HOW TO COOK EVERYTHING FOR A BIG COMMUNITY DINNER. THIS SEED TO TABLE PROCESS CONNECTS CHILDREN TO THE FOOD THEY EAT, ENCOURAGING THEM TO COOK THEIR OWN MEALS AND EVEN GROW THEIR OWN NUTRITIOUS AND DELICIOUS FOOD. CHILDREN WHO NEVER DREAMED OF EATING TURNIPS, GREEN BEANS, AND LETTUCE TAKE PRIDE IN PREPARING THEIR VEGGIES FOR A FUN COMMUNITY DINNER. SMART POTATOES - REAL SCHOOL GARDENS PARTNERS WITH SCHOOLS AND THE BOTANICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF TEXAS TO HAVE CHILDREN SPEND 100 DAYS GROWING POTATOES TO DONATE TO LOCAL FOOD PANTRIES. THIRTY SCHOOLS PARTICIPATED THIS YEAR, AND REAL SCHOOL GARDENS EQUIPPED TEACHERS WITH A WIDE RANGE OF LESSON PLANS SPECIFIC TO POTATOES. IN THE END, 1,833 KIDS GREW 521 POUNDS OF SPUDS TO DONATE, AND IN ADDITION TO THEIR ACADEMIC LESSONS, THEY LEARNED THAT IT FEELS GREAT TO GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED. | Desc |

| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D | DESCRIPTION OF OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES: REAL SCHOOL GARDENS, REAL RESULTS AT REAL SCHOOL GARDENS, OUR VISION IS TO ENRICH EVERY CHILD'S EDUCATION THROUGH LEARNING GARDENS. TO ACHIEVE THIS, WE BUILD LEARNING GARDENS IN LOW-INCOME SCHOOLS AND TRAIN TEACHERS HOW TO USE THEM SO THAT STUDENTS BECOME SMARTER, HEALTHIER, AND MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY AWARE. SMARTER AFTER GIVING CHILDREN HANDS-ON OUTDOOR LESSONS IN SCIENCE, MATH AND LANGUAGE ARTS, REAL SCHOOL GARDENS TEACHERS HAVE SEEN A MARKED INCREASE IN STUDENT ENGAGEMENT, A KEY INDICATOR IN LONG-TERM ACADEMIC SUCCESS. STUDIES SHOW THAT REAL SCHOOL GARDENS INCREASE STUDENT TEST SCORES, A PRIORITY FOR LOW-INCOME SCHOOLS. CHILD-EDUCATION EXPERTS HAVE DESIGNED OUR CURRICULUM TO EFFECTIVELY ENGAGE STUDENTS SO THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THEIR LESSONS MORE FULLY. OUTDOOR LEARNING SPARKS CHILDREN'S NATURAL CURIOSITY, BRINGING BACK THE JOY OF DISCOVERY THEY CRAVE. HEALTHIER IN ADDITION TO THE ACADEMIC BENEFITS OF LEARNING OUTDOORS, REAL SCHOOL GARDENS ALLOWS CHILDREN TO GROW THEIR OWN PRODUCE. STUDIES SHOW THAT CHILDREN WHO GROW THEIR OWN FOOD ARE MORE LIKELY TO EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES, SHOW HIGHER LEVELS OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT NUTRITION AND ARE MORE LIKELY TO CONTINUE HEALTHY EATING HABITS THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES. SIMPLY SPENDING TIME OUTSIDE WORKING IN THE GARDEN INCREASES STUDENTS' VITAMIN D LEVELS, REDUCES SYMPTOMS OF ADD AND ADHD, REDUCES STRESS, AND IMPROVES STUDENT BEHAVIOR AND SOCIAL INTERACTIONS. ENVIRONMENTALLY AWARE EVERY REAL SCHOOL GARDEN IS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE THE SCHOOL'S ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT BY COLLECTING RAINWATER, PREVENTING RUNOFF AND EROSION, CREATING COMPOST AND SUPPORTING NATIVE PLANTS AND WILDLIFE. IN ADDITION TO IMPACT OF EACH PROJECT, EVERY REAL SCHOOL GARDEN STUDENT WILL BE IMMERSED IN AN ENGAGING CURRICULUM THAT PROMOTES ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP FOR YEARS TO COME. CHILDREN IN LOW-INCOME SCHOOLS OFTEN HAVE LITTLE ACCESS TO A GREEN ENVIRONMENT, AND KNOW LITTLE ABOUT THEIR ROLE IN KEEPING THEIR ENVIRONMENT GREEN AND HEALTHY. THEIR REAL SCHOOL GARDEN GIVES THEM A SENSE OF THEIR PLACE IN THE WORLD, AND A SENSE OF PRIDE IN TAKING CARE OF IT. |
