Every School Deserves a Garden.
Raised beds, seeds, and soil — delivered to your schoolyard. Children learn photosynthesis with dirt under their fingernails, not diagrams on a whiteboard.
Growing in 247 schools across 18 states · Spring 2026
Schools just like yours.
Each of these gardens started with one person who said yes. Here's what happened next.
Lincoln Elementary
Pilsen · Chicago, IL
"My students used to ask why leaves are green. Now they ask why their bean plant is growing faster than Marcus's. That's the difference."
Eastwood Primary
Montavilla · Portland, OR
"We submitted a PO on a Tuesday. The beds arrived Friday. By Monday morning, seventeen kids were fighting over who got to plant the sunflower seeds."
Cesar Chavez Academy
Southwest Detroit · Detroit, MI
"We got our garden through the sponsored program. I cried when I saw the kids harvesting their first tomatoes. Real tomatoes they grew."

Start Your School GardenSimpler than you think.
We designed this for parent volunteers who've never gardened. If you can follow a recipe, you can run a school garden.
Choose your kit
Pick the size that fits your schoolyard and budget — from a single starter bed to a full garden classroom. Every kit includes beds, organic soil mix, seeds, and a teacher curriculum guide.
We deliver everything
Cedar raised beds arrive flat-packed with tool-free assembly. No hardware store run. A parent volunteer can set up a bed in 20 minutes. We include a printed assembly guide drawn in the same sketchbook style.
Kids start growing
Curriculum cards align with Next Generation Science Standards. Each card is one class period, illustrated, and written for teachers who've never held a trowel. First sprouts appear in 10–14 days.

The garden doesn't lie.
"I've been teaching third grade for eleven years. The garden is the first time I've seen a kid come back from winter break and ask when we're planting again."
"Honestly I just said yes at a PTA meeting and then panicked. The setup guide was so clear that my 8-year-old helped me assemble the first bed."
"Our soil test kit became a whole unit on chemistry. We weren't even supposed to be teaching chemistry."
"The PO process was the smoothest vendor experience I've had in eight years as a district coordinator. Two emails and it was done."
