Ohio students engage in winter gardening

Ohio's Columbus City Schools utilize seasonal gardening methods to grow cool-season crops during fall and winter, extending the traditional growing season through the use of raised beds, row covers, and indoor hydroponic systems. These practices support hands-on learning, helping students reinforce academic concepts and develop interpersonal skills despite the misalignment between the school calendar and typical crop growth seasons. The district, the largest in Ohio, has gardens at over 65 schools and indoor growing stations in more than 350 classrooms, with teacher training programs emphasizing the educational benefits of school gardening.
