Grow Some Good

Grow Some Good is a nonprofit community program dedicated to creating hands-on, outdoor learning experiences that cultivate curiosity about natural life cycles, connect students to their food sources, and inspire better nutrition choices.

In addition to helping establish food gardens and living science labs in local schools, we provide resources and curriculum support through community partnerships in agriculture, science, food education and nutrition.

Building School Gardens

Started during the 2006–07 school year, Building School Gardens installs gardens at Chicago public schools to achieve the following purposes:

• Develop "garden teams" to support the garden,
• Integrate the gardens into multi-disciplinary curriculum at multiple grade levels,
• Use art creatively in the landscape,
• Instill an environmental ethic in those who the gardens effect, and
• Incorporate physical activity as a regular daily activity

Eco Arts Council Quad Cities


The Eco Arts Council of the Quad Cities was created for advocacy, education, and for the promotion of Nature and natural living lifestyle; addressing environmental issues, and using Art as a gateway to draw awareness to and celebrate our place on Earth, our home, and our relationship to it.

Food Love Project

 The Food Love Project is an educational farm that was established in 2010 through the Living Lands Agrarian Network. The farm is devoted to promoting nutrition education, food security, and community involvement in growing, harvesting, eating, and celebrating fresh food! We provide experiential field trips, service projects, and classroom visits to local schools.

Hydro Harvest Farms School Gardens

Hydro Harvest Farms has been building Hydroponic School Gardens for more than 6 years. We work side by side with the teachers and students in building, planting, growing and tending the garden. We are a continual source of information related to the Hydroponic Garden and Integrated Pest Management. Our gardens are so easy to take care of. They are automatic, accessible, take up very little space and use very little water and electricity. We are Approved vendors for Manatee, Hillsborough, Polk, Pasco and Pinellas School Districts.
