This video by Grow Veg is a great guide on how you can start a school garden yourself, how to get the movement off the ground, and how to have it maintained and not simply left on the side like another well meaning school project!

We give this video 5 stars out of 5, very good.

It’s amazing how you can use what some see as rubbish, as practical building materials which can help you construct a school, a house and even a well!

That’s what this team in Guatemala is doing, making the school to teach locals how to use rubbish to make things. They will aim to make the school completely self-sufficient, which helps reinforce their attitude of environmentally friendly lifestyles.
