Garden Classrooms

Amity Montessori School

Amity Montessori School enjoys an organic school garden that is planted, tended, and harvested by the children attending the school. We use the garden for snack, cooking activities, food prep., Practical Life, and learning about Science, Math, and nutrition. In addition, we base most of our Summer Camp activities out of the garden.

Our Kids' Place

 We have a preschool garden serving 43 children and their families. We have about 12 spanish speaking families. Most of our families qualify for free lunch program. Our garden is about 3 years old and growing. We need all the help we can get!

Friends of Holly Hill Farm

The Friends of Holly Hill Farm is the non-profit education center based at Holly Hill Farm in Cohasset, MA.  Holly Hill Farm is a certified organic vegetable, flower, and herb farm with just under 4 acres under cultivation.  The farm sells to the public and to a few local restaurants.  In addition to the growing fields and buildings, the farm is home to 130  acres of beautiful woods with marked trails and diverse habitats including open fields, streams, salt water marsh, and vernal pools.

Arcadia High School

Here at Arcadia High School the students of AP Environmental Science and I have created (with much support from grants, donations, and awards and much patience) a beautiful garden outside our classroom.

Dailard Elementary Edible Science Garden

 We are in the process of constructing out Edible Science Garden. We have funding in place and are moving forward! So very excited to get these kids growing their own food and relating the garden to their daily educational activities. 

Healthy Communities Coalition

Since 2010, Healthy Communities Coalition has strategically worked towards improving our area’s food system. We began developing a food hub by connecting local, state, and federal agencies, tribal groups, farmers, businesses, and community volunteers around the goal of creating an affordable, accessible and fair food system that bolsters our local agriculture economy, provides for residents in need, builds demand for locally grown foods, and creates a sustainable source of healthy food.
