The document outlines a project scope to develop a scalable and replicable model for an intergenerational forest garden. The objectives are to experience the garden, research intersections, review best practices, and compile and report findings. The project scope includes assisting in creation, capturing documentation, education, health and wellness, community gardening, urban farming, permaculture, seeding further research, telling the story, and attracting funding. The role of consultants is to act as an organizational development resource, help define and document the garden's development within 3 months, and learn about connections between ecological and human organisms leading to greater health and sustainability.

#3: Cover Opening 際際滷To do add TIS and FP logos on every slideSeptember 1:11-12:30 Encore Room (near Fairhill Partners administrative space)3:15-4:00 TIS Technology Room (Janelle Horton classroom) second presentation should be focused on parents and teachers and limited to 45 minutes tops! Janelle is able to end classroom instruction at 2:45 the computers in the lab will not accommodate the 2007 versions of MSso it is best that team brings their own computer as planned to hook up to projector. projector will be available. do you have speakers we presume? Yes is there wireless or wired internet connection in the room? Wirelessfeedback we received from client "mid term - "however, more attention could have been devoted early on to mapping out a plan to address the organizational and funding needs of the project that ultimately must be addressed to satisfy the clients and stakeholders that this project will have lasting value and not create undue competition with scarce personal and financial resources." "....we need to formulate and articulate an appropriate organizational framework for project sustainability "It needs to complement and not compete with existing institutional commitments" Consideration should be given to the role of an associate non-profit entity (e.g. the already-incorporated Center for Ecological Culture) entering into a formal relationship with the TIS and Fairhill with a mission to carry forward the integrative role served to date by the MPOD team and project coordinators. And: "More needs to be done to engage the teachers and health practitioners in a manner that enables them to understand the significance of the project for their practices and instill a sense of ownership to the point where they are likely to utilize the opportunities presented for integration of the forest garden project with curriculum and healthy aging agendas. We anticipate that the MPOD deliverables should help "sell the idea of the FG as a valuable teaching and health practices resource" The group needs to circle back with the elder/volunteer community and professional staffs at Judson and Fairhill to help connect the garden with their health
#4: 際際滷 plays out while we read the story aloud view in slide presentation.Once upon a time there was a community. It was a small community called Fairhill Partners. It was located in the larger community of Cleveland, Ohio within the even larger community of the United States of America. Within this community there was a home for the elderly called Judson Park and a wonderful school called The Intergenerational School (TIS). There was also a Center for Creative Aging for the elderly associated with Judson, TIS and others. The school and the home and the center were all located on a beautiful campus called the Fairhill Partners Campus. One day, some of the leaders of the community had a dream to develop part of the campus ground into an edible forest garden. It would become a place where food would be grown for the children of the school and their families, for the aging community associated with Judson and the Center for Creative Aging, and for the members of the surrounding neighborhood. They wanted to co-create this edible forest garden because they believed that the emotional, physical, and spiritual health and well-being of all the people on the campus would be improved through their interaction with each other and with the garden. They wanted to create a place of beauty and wonder where children could come to watch caterpillars turn into butterflies and elders could come and sit and listen to the last birdsong announcing the sunset. They wanted to create a school curriculum and a community eco-literacy program centered around the lessons from the garden from the smallest micro organism to the macro-level ecological and economic dimensions of the global food production and distribution system. They wanted to create a place of wonder.The Intergenerational School (TIS) is a high performing, urban community school, a charter school whose mission is to empower students of all ages to be lifelong learners and spirited citizens. The curriculum emphasizes experiential learning through community service and creates developmentally appropriate educational opportunities for children and elders with cognitive challenges.
