Green Chimneys School

We plan to continue to enhance our two organic gardens and greenhouse to ensure an innovative learning environment for more than 250 special needs students and a pioneering training site for the thousands of visitors whom visit each year interested in replicating our therapeutic gardening program. New York State educational standards are met through our individualized year-round curriculum which includes certified horticultural therapy, seed propagation, harvesting, plant anatomy and maintenance, food storage, canning, farm machinery, tool usage, naturopathy, aromatherapy and composting. This grants will allow us to purchase materials for an herb garden.
