Incorporating edible plants into the outdoor school environment can provide a highly stimulating and interactive atmosphere. This can come in the form of native shrubs with berries, or vegetable gardens that kids can help tend, learning valuable skills and becoming more aware of where our food comes from. And who doesn’t love a healthy, tasty snack that springs out of the ground like magic?
