One hurdle to jump is.... apathy. I hear it over and over via school officials. Perhaps that is why one teacher has her class grow a tomato seedling in the classroom window to take home... change thru the children. DO parents feel as obligated as I did to plant that 4 inch yellow pear?? Maybe I can find that teacher and expand that program...
I fI can help people understand that one tomato plant gives a lot in return for a little!
THanks for your support.
