The problem

Looking after the school garden with our raised beds takes up a lot of time. It is not easy to get all the work done during regular lessons.

The solution we used

This school year, the non-binding Nature and Garden exercise was introduced in order to be able to work intensively in the school garden with particularly interested pupils. The children should also learn about and utilise regional wild plants.

Implementation

Work on, plant and maintain the raised beds

Making and distributing bird feeders

Making and planting seed bombs

Getting to know rose hips and tasting them as squash

Making and tasting nettle crisps

Recognising wild garlic and processing it into crisps, pesto and salt

Recognising dandelions and processing them into dandelion blossom cake

Planting and tasting cress

Planting early-flowering bulbs and observing their development

Growing various herbs (use still planned)
