This century-old garden is devoted especially to children in BBG's gardening classes. Everything here is planted, tended, and harvested by children. The children also paint the markers, with large signs indicating age groups and smaller stakes showing the gardeners' names. Some of the tools children learn to clean and maintain are over 100 years old. Miss Frances M. Miner served as a Children's Garden educator for 43 years, and children were receiving lessons from her in 1931. City Farmer participants were maintaining their plot in 2015.
