FW: Put your garden on a map!

Sharing a resource and request from the School Garden Support Organization (SGSO) Network below. 

~ Have a lovely August weekend! 

Put Your Program's Garden On the Map! 📍The School Garden Support Organization (SGSO) Network is excited to share that the National School Garden Map is live!

The map synthesizes data from school gardens and school garden support organizations nationwide, gathered in collaboration with district, regional, and state partners. The goal: provide a living snapshot of school gardens across the country to spark new connections and address gaps in service, and YOU are invited to join.

SGSO is preparing for a big update and later this year, will be analyzing the data on the map to create a landscape analysis of school gardens across the country. To capture as many school gardens and support organizations as possible, please join the map or update your data by August 28th to make sure you're part of it! For more information, email info@sgsonetwork.org.
