"The Growing Classroom provides activities for teaching science, environmental awareness, and nutrition in an outdoor living laboratory as well as in a classroom setting. The combination of direct observation and experimentation in the garden laboratory and focused lessons on specific topics is the core of Life Lab."--Information taken from p. 13.
