Hi there,

Does anyone have a Logic Model for school gardens they can share? I'm happy to provide feedback, if you want.

Yours in soil-based education,

Good Morning,

This resource is for community not school gardens but some of the same basic principles apply.

https://www.seattle.gov/neighborhoods/programs-and-services/p-patch-community-gardening/toolkit-for-gardeners/create-a-new-p-patch-community-garden

If you have not looked into P-Patch in Seattle, they have been around since the 1960s building and supporting gardens. They are a great model and resource.

Sign up for their newsletter too!

Best,

Hi Christina,

Are you looking for examples of logic models for one school garden, or a school garden program supporting multiple school gardens?

Hi,

At the School Garden Support Organization (SGSO) Leadership Institutes over the past 5 years, we have gathered various resources from School Garden Support Organizations. Here is a write up on best practices for evaluating programs, which includes examples from SGSOs across the country, and here is a folder with sample logic models from participating SGSOs.

I hope that’s helpful! If you have a Logic Model to contribute, please add it to the folder, or send it to me and I can add it for you!

All My Best,

Whiney

We have added some resources and additional sample logic models from other school garden organizations.
