GCU STEM Showcase: University of Arizona School Garden Workshop - Tour of Manzo Elementary
Looking for a vision of what your school garden could look like when fully developed? See what is possible at this Grand Canyon University STEM Showcase touring the school garden spaces at Manzo Elementary in Tucson, Arizona. Learn how these garden spaces are integrated into the curriculum and experiences of all the students at Manzo. With deep community connections, an aquaponics system (growing fish and plants together), chickens, and ties to the agrivoltaics (agriculture done under the shade of solar panels) research at the university, you are bound to be impressed and inspired. You will definitely walk away from this tour with ideas for the first or next steps (big or small) you can take in developing and expanding your own school garden spaces.
