Wanted to make you aware!!!

There is a huge project the only two Dutch SFG teachers are working on. Their names are Saskia and Jelle. Jelle has entered a contest to teach children to eat better. If he wins the contest they plan to illustrate a book for children and start a large scale project to bring gardening to the schools. Jelle is 17 and has his own website.

This is a website that explains the contest.

Both in Dutch but babelfish can help...

Thanks for mentioning our project middlemamma!

It is huge, should we win... Jelle is one of the youngest SFG teachers (he became one when he was 15) and the way he adresses children is really 'cool'. A very popular TV-program made a serie of 4 small programs with him. You can watch them on youtube (search for 'makkelijkemoestuin')

Please help us spread the word among schoolchildren! We do need a lot of votes!

You can help by going to this site:

http://www.voordewereldvanmorgen.nl/project/gezondere-kinderen-door-een-makkelijke-moestuin

and click on the green button saying "Stem!"

Then all you have to do is fill in your e-mail addres (and the little sum) and click the button again.

Thanks!
