| Quotes About This Product | "Once again, Mrs. Bennett has put together a study that far exceeded our expectations..."
Homeschool Mom "I think the whole study is wonderful. The websites are great and the questions to answer
are really great too." Homeschool Mom "...Another thing I like about this study is the links. If we were to find all that information (without the Internet), we would need many books (probably lugged home from the library), and it would take time to find the articles in the books that would pertain to the topic..."

At last, a unit study that is ready to use right now - no extra books or preparation required! Encompassing the history of gardens, plant science, planning and planting a garden, and the arts and gardens, the study is perfect for any time of year -- autumn gardens, winter daydreams, spring planting, and summer harvesting. Come on along and dig right in! We've grown seeds on the windowsill through the wintertime, watched a sweet potato sprout and spread across the top of the refrigerator, and learned so much! Gardening offers a priceless opportunity to work together on a fun family project, and share thoughts and ideas as you build your own special place of beauty and memories. From pole bean tepees to sunflower houses, what memories they will build! Use this study to share lessons about nature and plants with your children. What makes the seeds grow? Why do we grow things? What does a fresh ear of corn taste like? Imagine together, what it might have been like in the first garden -- the Garden of Eden! The Internet has added a whole new dimension to the world of unit studies and the Garden Unit Study takes full advantage of this tremendous resource.
