Great article! If you want to take your class to the Poughkeepsie Farm Project or another local farm, but are short of funds, apply for a matching grant through Teaching the Hudson Valley's Explore Awards, http://www.teachingthehudsonvalley.org/gra….

Thanks to Ms. Harvey for writing about the importance of hands-on outdoor education. And thanks to the teachers introduced here for their wonderful work with kids. A special shout out to the staff at George Washington -- public schools don't always make it easy to be creative. And, finally, a note to teachers who would like to take their students to parks, historic sites, and museums away from school, but lack resources to do so: check out Explore Awards and Bus on Us grants available from TeachingtheHudsonValley.org.
