Green School Bali

Green School is an international school in Bali, Indonesia, with approximately 300 students in Pre-K through Grade 12. These include fee-paying students from 40 countries and other parts of Indonesia, along with local Balinese children who attend via a scholarship program. Our commitment to sustainable practices earned us the Center for Green Schools at the US Green Building Council's innagural award as the “Greenest School on Earth”.

Grass Valley Charter School Garden

The mission of the Science Garden at Grass Valley Charter School is to provide quality lessons in gardening and science to the students of Grass Valley Charter School. We hope to open the space up to the other schools in our district very soon. Every student from Pre-K through 6th grade attends 45 minute weekly garden classes. The classes often teach Science Standards through the lens of gardening. 

New Pond Farm

 Each year, using our outstanding outdoor classrooms, we bring students of all ages outside and offer hands-on environmental programs that focus on our habitats with their diverse flora and fauna. When people appreciate and understand the world around them, they become better stewards of their environment.

The Grizzly Garden

Students in my class have built a compost bin and started to compost cafeteria scraps and seaweed to develop rich compost.  Our plan is to plant potatoes this spring in containers and in the fall harvest them to use in recipes in our classroom.  We are working to develop a raised bed garden at Kodiak Middle School.

Project Raw FPC

Our Company is a California based Flexible Purpose Corporation that focuses primarily in 3 areas: Outreach, Education, Community.  

Our OUTREACH program helps homeless shelters and food underprivileged organizations to maximize the shelf life of their donated fruits and vegetables.  We then teach them the nutritional benefits of them and implement high speed blenders to mix the "green" in with their smoothies.

 

Our EDUCATION program is delivered through media and website that explain and teach individuals the importance of a plant based nutritional diet.

Druid Hills Middle School Gardens

 Druid HIlls Middle School has 8 teacher gardens that exposes students to growing healthy, pesticide-free fruits and vegetables.  Through our Environmental club, science enrichment classes, and 6th grade Earth Science classes, students have experienced planting, maintaining, harvesting, research, and of course eating healthy food that they have grown.  

 

Students also help with composting to amend our soil.  This year we did our first food donation to the Atlanta Mission shelter that helps to feed 250 women and children daily.

 

Saint Brendan School

 Saint Brendan's Historical Home Arts class explores history and culture through art, time-period cooking, and gardening. We have recently started our garden which we call "The Farm". It is a mix of plants and vegetables. We use the vegetables to cook.
