Youth Gardening Handbook

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF YOUTH GARDENING.  Hopefully, the ideas and information on these pages will inspire and encourage all of you to find a youth and start building memories and fun times that will last a life time.  Good gardeners of tomorrow must begin with us mentoring the youth of today.  Feel free to contact me with any good ideas and suggestions that you would like to contribute to what I have already written for this site.  Cheri Kessen, Chairperson of the Youth Gardening Committee.
