Abstract

Schools can serve as custodians of biodiversity heritage as well as community seed banks. This vibrant PowerPoint presentation provides information regarding the concept and workings of school crop museums within the larger project: Improving food and nutrition security in the Philippines through school interventions. It gives instructions on design and implementation of schoolyard gardens with illustrations of produce varieties indigenous to school areas, and tips on how to plant and grow locally adapted crops.
