Growing Vegetables Classroom Kit

Give students everything they need to start growing their own vegetables with the Growing Vegetables Classroom Kit. It is designed to support STEM learning while introducing real-world agriculture and environmental career pathways.

Complete Classroom Gardening Experience

This kit includes 18 biodegradable pots so students can sow and nurture their own plants from seed. It also features three types of vegetable seeds: green beans, sweet peppers, and grape tomatoes. Students sprout seeds, monitor growth, and then transplant seedlings into a garden space for continued growth and harvest.

Builds Foundational Agriculture and Plant Science Skills

Students learn what it takes for seeds to germinate and thrive by observing soil conditions, watering needs, and plant development stages. This activity supports lessons in plant biology, life cycles, sustainability, and environmental systems. It promotes inquiry-based learning and encourages students to ask questions about food systems and crop production.

Connects to CTE Agriculture and Environmental Pathways

This resource aligns with Agriculture and Environmental Systems career clusters by introducing crop production, horticulture, and sustainable farming practices. Students gain experience in responsibility, data tracking, collaboration, and problem-solving. These transferable skills are essential for careers in agriculture, food science, environmental management, and greenhouse operations.

Classroom-Ready and Easy to Implement

The kit includes both student and teacher guides to support implementation and classroom management. It comes with everything needed to begin planting; just add water. The biodegradable pots allow for easy transplanting directly into a garden, reinforcing sustainable growing practices. Full contents below. Accommodates 18 students or small groups.
