About the Program: 

The mission of the Captain Planet Foundation is to give the next generation of environmental stewards an active understanding and love for the natural world in which they live.

For close to twenty-five years, we have been activating generations of environmentally literate citizens empowered to protect and sustain the natural systems upon which all life depends. Through our four main program areas, CPF invests in high-quality, solution-based programs that inspire and teach youth to become collaborators and agents of change.

Project Learning Garden is a program of the Captain Planet Foundation and partners with Atlanta Public Schools to pilot a Garden to Cafeteria program and implement garden-based learning in most of the elementary and middle schools.
