Easy Garden Planter
The Easy Garden Planter is a very practical addition for your school garden or vegetable growing area.
It consists of a large capacity, low level planter, enabling easy access, so all children can participate in fun, educational, hands-on gardening. Learners can both stand or kneel whilst digging and planting in the soil . Around the top edge of the planter is a broad ledge, which has proven to be very useful to lean on or to rest tools upon.
The planter is divided into three separate, useful planting compartments, making separation of colour or variety of vegetables or flowers easy. The effective, geotextile liner allows water to drain through but also prevents the growth of troublesome weeds. Constructed from pressure treated, natural timber, the planter is both sturdy and suited to outdoor gardening. The Scandinavian Redwood timber is sourced from sustainable forests and provides a smooth, natural surface that kids love to touch.
Perfect to help to create a sensory garden in your setting, why not include plants that are great to touch, smell, listen to or visually interesting? Growing edible flowers, fruits and vegetables is also a way of inspiring young children to try to taste different edible plants. If they’ve been involved in the whole process: planting it and watching it grow, tending for it and then harvesting it, they’re more than likely very keen to eat it! A ideal and effective way to increase healthy eating within your school, at the same time as reinforcing the science curriculum; children will naturally observe what plants need to grow and be able to name the parts of the plant, as well as to observe seasonal changes and the life cycle of the plants, whilst gardening. Hands-on learning really embeds knowledge and understanding, so an Easy Garden Planter, will set the learners on a pathway to scientific success.
