Botany & Gardening
Plant families, soil life, and the Back to Eden method, from tomatoes and squash through herbs, berries, and companion planting.
Botany & Gardening is taught in Grade 12. Each year below is a complete course in its own right, with its own units, its own quizzes, and its own downloads.
This is a self-paced elective. It sits outside the daily schedule, so a family can take it over a summer, stretch it across a year, or skip it without unsettling anything else.
