class='avia_textblock' ><p><strong>Everyday People: Gainesville couple uses gardening for education<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>By Joy Holmes | Seth Chapman<br \/>\n<\/em>Former deputy school system superintendent Lee Lovett and his wife, retired teacher Kathy Lovett, spent the majority of their professional careers working for the Hall County School System, but even after retirement the couple has pursued education in a non-traditional space.<\/p>\n<p>Following retirement, the Lovetts completed a 10-week course to obtain certifications in master gardening as a way to help contribute to the Gainesville-Hall County community. There are about 150 master gardeners in the Hall County area whose responsibility is to answer questions at the Master Gardener Center, assist in community projects and most of all, contribute to the group&#8217;s main goal of education, Lee Lovett said.<\/p>\n<p>The first project the Lovetts tackled was planted in 2007 when Kathy Lovett visited her husband at the Hall County School District offices on Green Street in Gainesville. An area of land on the property full of weeds and over-growth caught her eye.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said, \u2018We could put a garden out there,\u2019 and my sweet husband replied, \u2018hmm,\u2019 and I replied, \u2018We could, the Master Gardeners could put a garden out there,\u201d Kathy Lovett said.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of the garden was brought before school district officials, who fell in love with Kathy\u2019s idea.\u00a0It wasn\u2019t long after the couple\u2019s idea was introduced that\u00a0the school district committed to a partnership with the Hall County Master Gardeners to create what is now called Gardens on Green.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of the garden was not only to create a space for plants to grow, but also to create an area where children can grow, expand their imaginations and build a love for nature.<\/p>\n<p>During the warmer months of the year,\u00a0groups of Hall County second graders visit the garden. At various centers positioned on the garden site, the students learn about the many types of plants grown in the garden, nutrition and the critters that visit the garden on a regular basis, according to\u00a0Lee.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey spend about 35 minutes at each center, thus rotating from one to the other,\u201d Kathy said.<\/p>\n<p>Included in the garden is an area of native plants, where each plant is one found\u00a0growing naturally in Georgia soil. There&#8217;s also a\u00a0pollinator garden, which is visited by bees, hummingbirds\u00a0and butterflies. A conifer garden was planted with sensory-friendly trees that are both prickly and soft-to-the-touch. Children can unlock their imaginations in a fairy garden complete\u00a0with tiny homes and gems left behind by the mystical creatures.<\/p>\n<p>A literacy garden allows the children to explore places like Mr. McGregor\u2019s House and Jack and Jill\u2019s Hill. A vegetable and nutrition garden is used for the children to harvest fruits and vegetables, and they can even\u00a0make smoothies thanks to a\u00a0grant from\u00a0Captain Planet, which provided the garden with a kitchen cart stocked with a Vitex blender. Of course, no garden would be complete without a butterfly garden, where children can watch the miracle of a butterfly\u2019s life cycle.<\/p>\n<p>The Lovetts&#8217; goal is to teach children to love gardening\u00a0because when people are taught to love something, they take better care of it, Kathy said. Lee agrees, but he said there&#8217;s the additional benefit of exposing students to the outdoors during a time when most\u00a0children are immersed\u00a0into the technological aspect of the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChildren are not exposed to nature anymore and any exposure we can give them is good,\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n<p>The garden is used to instill\u00a0values in the children who visit each year, helping them learn a sense of responsibility and delayed gratification, Kathy said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have stories from several children who\u2019ve had such great experiences here\u2026it tells us that we are doing something right,\u201d Kathy said.<\/p>\n<p>In the future, the Lovetts want\u00a0to expand the literacy garden and perhaps create\u00a0additional space for children to feed their imaginations and develop a true sense of love for the common ground we share.<\/p>\n<p><em>(<a href=\"https:\/\/accesswdun.com\/article\/2019\/10\/840351\/everyday-people-gainesville-couple-uses-gardening-for-education\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read AccessNorthGA.com Article<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<div  class='hr av-382r2c-eae45d2b6e0c8236a972553b267b5d83 hr-default  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_heading '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-l3ikg4ic-45920bb681239a889c94765591ff8e14\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-l3ikg4ic-45920bb681239a889c94765591ff8e14{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-l3ikg4ic-45920bb681239a889c94765591ff8e14 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-l3ikg4ic-45920bb681239a889c94765591ff8e14 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-l3ikg4ic-45920bb681239a889c94765591ff8e14 av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  >Gardens on Green and The Reading Rocket <\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-l3ikkcry-5312f77d99557a4a0e6829d577ea830c '  ><div class='avia_textblock' >\n\t\t<div class=\"wppdfemb-frame-container-1\" style=\"-webkit-overflow-scrolling:auto;\">\n\t\t\t<iframe class=\"pdfembed-iframe nonfullscreen wppdf-emb-iframe-1 lazyload\" src=\"about:blank\" title=\"Gardens on Green and Reading Rocket\" data-pdf-id=\"26139\" data-pdf-index=\"1\" style=\"border:none;width:100%;max-width:100%;height:100vh;\" scrolling=\"yes\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hallco.org\/web\/?pdfemb-data=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvd3d3LmhhbGxjby5vcmdcL3dlYlwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyMlwvMDVcL1JlYWRpbmctNi5wZGYiLCJ0aXRsZSI6IkdhcmRlbnMgb24gR3JlZW4gYW5kIFJlYWRpbmcgUm9ja2V0IiwiaW5kZXgiOjEsInBkZklEIjoyNjEzOX0\">\n\t\t\t<\/iframe>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3844","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
