Overview

A Green Kid's Guide to Preventing Plant Diseases will teach students how to keep plants healthy with compost, water, and mulch instead of using fungicides. Tips on moving plants and cleaning tools are also included. A composting research project will give students a hands on activity to get them interested in gardening.
