Middle School

The primary goal of CSAT's Greenhouse Education Garden is to engage students in real-world, greenhouse-based agricultural management, in alignment with best educational practices and New York State Learning Standards.

Mickle Middle School

The Young Urban Farmers Program was started at a Lincoln, Nebraska middle school in 2012 to connect children to the soil and the origins of their food. Students gain knowledge and experience in sustainable crop production, hoop house management, cooking their produce and basic business planning. The students are engaged in all aspects of the garden-from starting seed to selling at their own farmer's market.

The Community School

Our goal is to develop soil research plots so students can experience hands-on science in the garden. Our school was established on an old farm, where the topsoil had been sold by the previous farmers. Last year students tested the soil in the area where we plan to establish the study plots and found absolutely zero nitrates, phosphates, and the texture of the soil was pure sand.

Classroom in Bloom

Elizabeth's Garden is the Atlanta Chapter's Signature Program and was created to be an outdoor classroom, a living laboratory for students of the Elaine Clark Center to explore nature with their 5 senses. Our goal is to bring this Garden into the Classroom with monthly Cooking Classes and Classroom Activities.

Mary Collins School at Cherry Valley

Cherry Valley School has a greenhouse that has the potential to grow plants and young minds alike, but currently is in disrepair and unusable as a teaching space. The greenhouse could serve as a reliable outdoor teaching space, improving the garden and environmental education curriculum for our 6-8 grade classes.

Linton Springs Elementary School

We wish to provide a unique winter gardening experience for students to grow and harvest cool-weather vegetables during our typically-dormant winter months. They will be able to eat this produce and donate the extra food to our families-in-need and/or the local soup kitchen. We
