The School Garden as an Open Classroom: Learning, Health, and Sustainability
A school garden in Ontinyent and la Vall d’Albaida, is much more than a growing space; it is an educational tool that connects students with the land and the origin of their food. We design safe and accessible installations, using materials such as raised beds or treated timber planters, adapted to the age and height of students to ensure a comfortable and enriching learning experience.
The key to success in an educational project is consistent maintenance that guarantees the garden’s viability throughout the school year. We take care of seasonal soil preparation, organic pest control, and supervision of the automatic irrigation system, allowing teaching staff to focus on the educational aspect while we ensure a green, productive, and vibrant space..
