Sparking Curiosity
Why we do what we do
Every big idea, big movement or big change starts with a single small seed. The Green Our Planet team is inspired by the joy on children's faces as they learn where their food comes from and connect to the magic and majesty of planet Earth. This is the foundation of a gentle movement that empowers communities and creates opportunities for students.
