/h2>Welcome to the monthly installment of “This Month In the Garden” for April on the In The Garden with UC Master Gardeners radio show.
UC Master Gardeners Teena Spindler and Katrina Kirkeby get together every month to discuss what you might want to consider working on or planning for in your garden.
Deadhead (remove spent flowers) to keep your garden fresh and clean. April is the month to start watching for caterpillars and worms and keep them in check. They can wreak havoc if left to go uncontrolled. However, care must be made to safeguard the beneficial birds and such that feed on them.
Master Gardeners use University of California-approved, science-based techniques in all aspects of gardening and these techniques are what we share with you on this show every week.

/h3>This week on In the Garden with UC Master Gardeners, we take you into a remarkable success story of pairing core elementary school learning and growing food!
Master Gardener Bill Brooks has traveled to Laguna Beach's Top of the World (TOW) Elementary School and talked with fellow MG, and school board member, Kelly Osborne.
Imagine that through a simple school garden, the varied concepts of Mathematics, History and Social Studies, and of course, Science are incorporated in the K-5 outdoor classroom curricula! Whatever the grade-based core studies requirements are, a lesson can be developed. Learning outdoors is a key element of student excitement and engagement! The sense of pride when the students see their garden's bounty featured in the school cafeteria is immeasurable! The surrounding community also benefits, and contributes, when they help with the funding as consumers of the products and produce made and grown at the TOW School Garden!
