Gardening and Cooking Program from Berkeley Unified School District is a free school-year long curriculum for garden education for TK-8 with a lesson each week, but the lessons can be taught individually or in a different sequence. They are divided into appropriate grade levels (Mild, Medium, and Spicy) and are aligned to NGSS, Common Core, and Health & Nutrition Standards. Printable lessons and supplemental materials, vocabulary, and garden recipes are at the end.
