Help me give my students a great experience growing their own food this spring and summer.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hamill's classroom raised $226
This project is fully funded
My Project
We would like to create a garden sanctuary for student learning. Classes can move lessons outdoors and create a space for meditation and self-care during lunch. We are hoping to till the fence line for a beautiful sunflower wall and create a haven for local bees.
We need gardening tools, a variety of seeds, and a microgreens growing kit.
I look forward to sharing the rewards of this project with you all. Goals include teaching green career skills and introducing healthier food choices into the students' lives. Our space will become an outdoor classroom as well as a getaway for our students.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
