Note to Parents
Today's children are growing up in a tough world. Every day thousands of children are faced with violence, sexual abuse, and depression. Young teenage girls are faced with unwanted pregnancy. Television bombards children daily with murders. Many children cannot handle the pressures of the world and turn to suicide or substance abuse as an answer to their problems.
This Web site is dedicated to the proposition that gardening as a learning experience and as a hobby can help children cope with the stresses of the world in which we live.
