The combined resources of the National Wildlife Federation and the Junior Master Gardener Program along with the valuable input from pilot teachers and students across the country have helped to shape Wildlife Gardener into an integrated, engaging, and one-of-a-kind experience for kids.
Become A Certified Wildlife Gardener!
Youths across the nation are able to become Certified Wildlife Gardeners with the release of the second book in the JMG Golden Ray Series, Wildlife Gardener. While taking part in an integrated curriculum they will strengthen skills in math, science, language and social studies.
