Garden Classrooms

Pioneer Elemenatary School

Our garden program provides a seed to table experience for K-6th graders. Kids explore science, learn about nutrition and experience nature while creating positive memories about fresh and nutritious foods.

Saint Philip Neri School

Through the Garden Science Enrichment program, the students (Preschool-5th grade) have an opportunity to learn about growing food and environmentally sustainable practices. The future of the Garden Science program includes an integration of cross-curricular and hands-on learning experiences with classroom academics and development of social-emotional regulation through nature and community service.

Greenway

Greenway is a nature-inspired childcare center with organic school gardens. Collectively, children and teachers learn where food comes from, from seed to table.

The Growing Life Garden Project

The growing life garden project currently encompasses 2 counties in Southern Colorado. We currently have 17 different garden sites along with over 500 participants. We are built on the foundation to help teach a life skill to urban undeserved youth along with helping families overcome food insecurities.

Nanaimo Innovation Academy

Nanaimo Innovation Academy's mission is to provide children and families with high-quality educational and daycare programming that is unique, collaborative, and creative.

Geitmyra matkultursenter for barn / Geitmyra food culture centre for kids

Our vision is to teach as many kids and youths as possible about great tasting food that is good for them and for the environment.

We have school classes visiting us every day of the school year. We have garden classroom and three kitchen classrooms, and our location is an old farm - situated in the middle of Oslo.

We also have food courses for families, for junior chefs and for the brand new parents wanting to learn how to make healthy, nourishing, safe and tasty food to their babies.

Darnall Charter School Garden

The desire to start a school garden came from the creation of a Sustainability Club (now known as the Darnall Earth Saver’s Club) two years ago. A group of 45 students in grades 2-6 come together Fridays after school to decide on ways that we, as a school community, can help and conserve our environment. Creating a new school garden was at the top of their list and is now a reality. We spend our Friday afternoons planting, fertilizing, weeding, harvesting, collecting seeds, and preparing our garden beds for the next planting season.

Let Us Learn

Let Us Learn is a volunteer-run organization focused on educating and sharing with the community. We have a particular focus on garden-to-table nutrition. Most of our classes are in Title 1 schools in our county.

Our mission: to develop a community where individuals such as chefs, artisans, and mentors share their skills with at-risk youth, and to inspire others to do the same.

Our Vision: to build community through shared skills.

Cleveland's Little Jardin

Cleveland's Little Garden hope to bring diverse students to caring for the garden and taking in leadership in creating meals to other students in the classroom. We envision a school community that branches out to the neighboring community around food. We hope to educate the parents in healthy eating by advocating it for our students.

Whiting Lane Elementary School

Since I became a teacher in 1989, I have always used the outdoors as a basis for my lesson objectives. I helped to develop a Children's Forest outside our school where we emphasized 4 different ecosystems - pond, forest, flower garden and vegetable garden to teach children the importance of biodiversity and caring for the earth. My classes created Trail Guides that included poetry and informational writing about different species so that visitors to our forest could learn and meditate on poetry that pertained to the area they were sitting.
