Let's Grow Some Fruits and Vegetables!

Help me give my students the tools needed to create a school garden.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Babuca's classroom raised $4,495

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

All students enjoy the experience of working with the environment, so why not allow them to grow their fruits and vegetables? Students can and will learn the concepts of growth, teamwork, collaboration, and sustainability, all while being supported and valued as students and individuals.

Please help me get the starting material for gardening, such as a gardening storage unit to keep all equipment stored outdoors, a gardening bed, kneeling pads, different seeds, gardening tools, student literature about plants, literature to empower teachers about gardening, and additional tools needed to start a school garden.
