GrowTeachKnox has been postponed as a precaution related to the coronavirus. We plan to reschedule the event for a later time, to be determined. When we reschedule, we will notify you of the new date.

Open to professional and informal educators alike, GrowTeachKnox is dedicated to engaging students with the outdoors.

Local environmental, gardening, and education professionals will provide hands-on learning for educators to better integrate lessons in the classroom with nature. Educators will leave the day with the confidence to take their students outside, allowing students to more tangibly connect what they are learning to what they see in the wider world.
