Lesson 19


Harvesting Hope 
by Kathleen Krull


Essential Question: Why is farming important?

Joshua 24:13 So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities you did not build; and you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.’

"Why is farming important?" That's the question we'll explore this week. In the biographical selection Harvesting Hope: The Story of Cesar Chavez, we'll learn about the man who brought the plight of migrant farm workers to national attention. This week's informational text, The Edible Schoolyard, tells students how to become community leaders by creating a school garden.
