**Abstract:** Environmental education, as defined by Hadjichambis et al., is effective when it combines knowledge types as well as organizational and management forms. Formal, informal and non-formal education are mediators of other types of knowledge, and participants have different perceptual interests and intentions and motivations. This paper focuses on an example of a non-formal environmental education form. It presents and analyses the types of knowledge and the motivations for their use in environmental education in Hungary in the example of school gardens.
