What is hydroponics and why use it? What are the resources involved in growing good food? How can we maximize those resources to produce the most food? Learners will see the parts of a simple hydroponic growing system and talk about how each part meets the needs of the plants. We will learn how plants get the nutrition, light, water and bacteria which they need to grow. We will also discuss how this basic hydroponic system can be transformed to the protein producing system of aquaponics! (That's growing plants and fish at the same time!) *This class applies to the B.C. Ministry of Education’s Curricular requirements for Applied Design, Skills, and Technologies 6 B.C. Grade 1-6 and also Sciences for Grades 1-6.

I love making space for young people to bring meaning to their experiences - be they social, educational or creative. I'm a lifelong learner and a parent. My grandparents spoke Dutch (maternal) and Ukrainian (paternal) growing up.
I especially love recycling textiles with my learners on Outschool!
I have pet worms who eat my compost. I love to eat (and talk about!) wild foods.
I completed a Bachelor's of Child and Youth Care, with early childhood education specialization from the University of Victoria. Learning about humans is my favourite.
