The Kentucky School Garden Network is collaborating with Brightside, The Partnership for a Green City EE committee, Jefferson County Extension Service, The JCPS and the U of L Centers for Environmental Education to sponsor a survey and needs assessment of schools and gardening.

By completing the survey you will:

* Have the option to receive regular updates on grants, professional development opportunities and assistance in getting started and/or maintaining your school outdoor classroom.

* Demonstrate the level of interest in expansion of school gardening and/or the use of outdoor environment

* Help focus future initiatives of the school gardening community to work on projects that will help your school.

For those completing the survey by Feb 16th will be entered into a drawing for free garden equipment, complete soil analysis assessments and other related material. Register even if you only have an interest in gardens or are currently working with a gardening program off your site.

Please pass this survey on to any interested teachers, parents and or involved students. Copy and paste the survey link into your web browser www.surveymonkey.com/s/schoolgardens.
