This study measured the impact of a school garden program on agriculture learning of pupils living in a food insecure region of rural Uganda and aimed to identify if the pupils acquire agriculture knowledge and skills through a school garden program. Agriculture learning of pupils attending a school with a school garden program or attending a school without a garden was investigated through three methods: 1) analyzing exam scores of pupils completing primary school grade 7 from two schools, 2) evaluating preand post-test scores over an agriculture topic taught in the national curriculum, and 3) administering a questionnaire of pupils.
