Garden Classroom Essentials

Help me give my students a shed to store all the supplies and tools needed to maintain their garden classroom!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. JEN's classroom raised $1,931

This project is fully funded

My Project

The new garden classroom at our elementary school will be utilized by all the students in all grade levels. It will be a place to explore nature, insects, learn how to grow healthy food, and will all be done with hands-on experience.

The children will learn about growing food, cooking it, and how to give back to our planet.

The students will be growing in their knowledge, along with the plants that they will help cultivate. It will also provide a natural environment for reflection, and a beautiful landscape for our lovely school.

The shed that is needed will store all my classroom supplies for the garden, as well as tools.
