Apple Seed had a problem with the current teaching programs in New York City. New York required
standardized testing for students. Teachers were
focusing more on preparing students for testing than
teaching science. On average, elementary schools
were only devoting 40 minutes of class time to
science instruction each week. Thus Apple Seed
begon. They reached out to 4.000 public schools in
the area to ock start a garden program that provides
o fun and interactive way to teach children. Apple
Seed hos mode progress in teaching young students
science and math. Leaming takes place in the entire
process of gardening time Students plant vegetables
and flowers in both inside and outside gardens. They
care for them up until harvest when they sell their
produce locally. Students also leaned how to cook
helping math skills. Many teachers support the
program. They state that letting children explore and
experiment is important for a productive learning
environment. The idea is to have students memorizing
less and practice their knowledge through real
experiences. Apple Seed has done its best to pursue
