My Project
I love how curious, creative, and eager my students are to explore the world around them. They thrive when learning is hands-on and connected to real-life experiences. This gardening project will allow them to grow their own fruits and vegetables while learning about science, nutrition, and sustainability. The raised garden beds create a dedicated space for our garden, the heirloom seed kit provides a wide variety of plants to explore, and the beginner-friendly guides will support their learning every step of the way. This project will help my students develop responsibility, teamwork, and a deeper connection to the environment.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
