Homeschoolers, it’s time for you to get your hands dirty and garden! Gardening is a great way for homeschoolers to learn about plants, vegetables, photosynthesis and have fun during the summer. Gardening is also the perfect way to reinforce homeschooling curriculum by discussing the water cycle, the process of photosynthesis and other concepts in biology.

Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. — Genesis 1:11-12

In Him,

    Hello! My Dad, Clyde Majerus, has developed a sliding chart that can help gardeners know when and how to plant their vegetable gardens. Clyde’s Garden Planner works by referring to the local first and last frost dates for your area, which are supplied in an instruction sheet. It can be used almost anywhere in the nation, and has been a helpful tool to our own homeschooling family. We are selling them for $3.50 ppd and thought they might be a great resource for other homeschoolers.

    Our website has more information and a demonstration: http://cdmplanning.hypermart.net or just google Clyde’s Garden Planner
