Chrissa Carlson, the Garden and Nutrition Educator at Baltimore’s Hampstead Hill Academy, is back for Part 2 of our School Garden series. Along with UME’s Jon Traunfeld, she explains the different components of her school garden that not only makes it an effective space for growing plants, but also an engaging classroom.
