Look into vertical gardening using pvc arches then planting lettece below along with other plants that need a break during the day from the sun and trellises. Not only can more be done in a small space but it also shows how going up thermo cools the earth below. Double science project.
Hi Cherry one way is to make pallet gardens . Stand the pallets up and plant inside the slats. Or hang little buckets on the pallets where the children can each take them down to tend to the plant.
I found 2 videos for you on YouTube one I thought the design might work for you. The other has about 13 pallet garden ideas on it .
Good Luck sounds like fun!
