Working Together
We offer custom gardens and instruction according to your school's vision and CIP. We service all grade levels and students in Elementary.
Wilson Elementary
Est. Spring 2023
At Wilson Elementary, we garden with 3rd and 4th grade students. We have 6 garden visits in the Fall, 2 in the Winter, and 6 in the Spring. We garden every 2 weeks during the growing season. Each grade level has the opportunity to garden almost every month of the school calendar year. This allows the students to note the effects seasons have on plant growth.
Hancock Elementary
Est. Spring 2023
At Hancock Elementary, 3rd and 4th grade students are leaders in the garden. While we have gardened with other grade levels at Hancock, the 3rd and 4th graders are the ones creating the plans and sowing the seeds.
Coming Soon
Est. TBA
At this school we provide instruction to grade levels 2-5. The fall semester we garden with 4th and 5th grade level students while in the Spring semester we garden with 2nd and 3rd grade level students. This allows the students to see the progression of a garden season while allowing more students in the school to obtain the garden experience.
