This video is of the school gardens at Mt.Diablo High Hchool, in Concord, CA located in the Bay Area of California. The gardens were started for the high school students many years ago when Patrick Oliver an environmental science teacher there turned an empty plot of land into a flourishing school garden. Students can now see where their food comes from and have a chance to get their hands working with soil and seed. This garden truly stands as a model for what many schools across the country and the globe can look like! This was my second Wwoofing, trip and I support the global ecovillage/permaculture/school garden movement. The future starts with a seed, our children and our food. They both be blessed, and well!
I do not own the music in this video. The tracks are segments a trance artist, ATB.

Thanks Paul for showing off that nice little lush learning space. I enjoyed the tour and look forward to more vlogs, garden demos, and/or more tours. I want to ask about the drain in the center of the garden shown toward the end of the video. Is this drain used to capture water for the garden or does it lead to the sewer system? Thanks Paul!
Looks like they got postman pat to bring them back lol but must admit I was wondering how they got back seeing as Tim and his pals are still up there
great to see the kids getting involved!!
What an awesome way to get young people involved. Great video Sean
Great video Sean, really excited to see which grew best. Bet it was a task and a half to get this all together. Appreciate your work 🙂 Jazz. and Gem
My child attends this school, it's inner city and only the children with upper class accents were featured. This is absolutely not a true representation of the intake of children. That man isn't even a teacher, he's a learning mentor.
This is so wonderful. My eleven year old loved it. Can't wait to see the results.
Excellent video, Sean.
I love to see the kids gardening
great experiment Sean !!!
Great video. We have had three days of 72 degree farenheit weather, but tomorrow back down into the fifties. not happy.
Great series Sean. I like things to get kids involved in gardening
Cheers.
Harold
How exciting, can't wait to see how things go.
This is just great and really good to see kids getting involved
Sean thank you for this, i can't wait to see the results , I'm just as excited as the children .
very cool!
how did the seeds get back to earth?
what video-editing software do you use for this? thanks
Wow! What a brilliant project to be involved in and what a clever bit of editing! Those children will never forget the experience of being involved in such an essential type of reaserch in plant growth. Well done Sean, you should be proud also, to be part off this wonderful scientific experience. Best wishes Graham
