Seed Pen Pal Exchange

Farm to School BC invites your class to participate in our first Seed Pen Pal Exchange project!

How It Works

Get Matched: We will use the form below to connect you with another class in BC with a school garden.

Happy Exchange: In April, you will send your “pen pal” class a letter and seeds and receive the same in return!

Stay In Touch: In June, you will send and receive a garden update from your pen pal.

F2SBC Support: We’ll provide some guidelines for a successful pen pal exchange, and be here to support you along the way! We will also provide a printable class activity for each pen pal exchange to further class engagement and enhance learning outcomes from participation in the project.

Program Expectations

• Send two (or more) seed packets plus a thoughtful letter from your whole class to your pen pal class in April.
• Plant the seeds you receive from your pen pal class this spring growing season in your school garden.
• Send another collaborative class letter to your pen pal with an update on your school garden in June.
