  2. Bag Garden Starter Kits

    Small gardens, ideal for small hands

    Bag Garden Starter Kits

    Bag Gardens are a type of African garden that Send a Cow teaches families how to make in Africa. They are also a great way to get your pupils involved in a growing project, learning about healthy eating and life in an African country - with plenty of related resources and images to help you. These mini-gardens make the most of good soil, compost and waste water, are easy to weed and can be grown in schools - bringing a global dimension to many subject areas. Use the links below for a fun explanation and to view other African Gardens activities - you can also use the leaflet to order and find out more about Bag Garden Starter Kits (or call us on 01225 874222).
