Garden-based
STEM program

The current body of research demonstrates that gardens significantly enhance learning through experiential education. They foster a sense of community. They also increase teacher satisfaction, as educators report higher preparedness and job fulfillment levels. School gardens also improve student engagement and academic performance, especially in low-performing schools.

Garden-based STEM learning curricula

In 2015, Nevada’s first school garden impact survey was conducted by the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and showed the positive impacts school gardens had for students and educators throughout Clark County School District.

Create a Garden at your Workplace, Home or School

Experiential STEM

Outdoor gardens are one of the best tools available for teaching students experiential STEM, nutrition and conservation and are a great resource to get students engaged with educational standards.

Online community

You will also connect and collaborate with like-minded teachers at schools across the nation to share best practices and get support during your monthly meetings and through our online community of garden teachers.

A decade of experience

By assigning an experienced Green Our Planet coordinator to your school for monthly meetings, we are able to share nearly a decade of experience in how to build and maintain a garden, utilize garden-based curricula, create student-run farmers markets and how to form the next generation of scientists, chefs and entrepreneurs.

Discover Boundless Wonder

You know how many students test poorly in science, are stuck inside their classrooms all day, have no idea where their food comes from, and are disconnected from both nature and school? Well, we can help change that.  We install turnkey outdoor gardens and hydroponic laboratories to inspire students and get them excited and engaged at school. We run the largest school garden and hydroponic programs in the country. 97% of the teachers who use our programs recommend them to other schools.

Testimonials
