Advice/Resources for Syntropy in School Setting
Hey y’all. At the beginning of the year I started working for a homeschool coop and have essentially been teaching an earth skills/gardening class, though they title it permaculture. It’s ages 6-14, mixed, though I’m hoping this next semester we’re able to organize the classes more intentionally to group the kids by age. While the past few months our learning space has been mostly outdoors (a tiki structure & raised beds), it looks like we’ll now have access to an indoor classroom and a potential new growing space. My plan for growing is to establish a patch of support species to keep things low cost & allow for potential food forest if things on this piece of land continue to feel positive for the school. I also hope to teach the kids with more structure about native Florida ecology, forest succession, plant dynamics, soil biology, and more. Are any of you teachers? Do you have curriculum developed? Have advice in this context? Any other thoughts? I want to be of service to the goals of this school as best I can and also take advantage of the opportunity to establish a system of support plants (potentially with no irrigation) and would appreciate any input. Thank you!

Heyyyy, so I came across this and thought of you—it’s not exactly what you might be after, though it’s a really lovely illustration of SAF. https://grassrootseconomics.org/theme/pdfs/Syntropic%20agroforestry%20handbook.pdf
