Gardening Stylz

At St Thomas we are learning about how to grow our own vegetables.  We want to learn what different ways we can use to grow vegetables and what styles will get the best results and will suit our school environment.

Visit the this list of websites and learn about the different styles of gardening.  You need to evaluate each method and rate how effective it could be for growing vegetables at school.  Write your answers in your "Gardening Stylz" workbook.
