2010 Eco-Farm  Bus Tour rolled straight into a stormy day of downpours and tornado warnings. After our first rainy stop at Carmel Middle School we continued on to mostly clear skies at Westlake Elementary, the Life Lab Garden Classroom and UCSC Farm, and ended at the Santa Cruz Green Careers High School.

During the tour we discussed many resources that are useful for on farm and garden-based education.

Here is a summary of some resources we shared and discussed during the day.
