This is a hub for school gardens in SDUSD! Here you can find support and resources from the district and from fellow school garden coordinators!
The first thing we ask each school to do is update or submit their school garden profile annually.
(*Click here to update or submit your school garden's profile!)
This is how the district can keep track of school gardens in the district (who's active, who has a vacant garden, leaks, big projects, partnerships, and more!
