My Project
Our school just embarked on a mission where we are growing a school garden to provide students with hands-on learning experiences in science, nutrition, and sustainability.
To make this project a success, we are seeking donations of seeds to plant and nurture.
We would greatly appreciate any contributions of vegetable, herb, or flower seeds to help our students learn about plant life cycles, healthy eating, and environmental responsibility.
My students are special because they are growing something bigger than just a garden—they’re cultivating curiosity, responsibility, and a connection to the environment. With my guidance, they’re learning hands-on lessons about sustainability, nutrition, and teamwork, which will stay with them far beyond the classroom.
Their enthusiasm and engagement in this project show their creativity, resilience, and willingness to learn. Plus, they’re transforming their school into a greener, more vibrant space for everyone.
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
