We Believe...

A well-run school garden program can transform a school or an entire school district’s culture.

Learning to take care of a garden is the first step in learning to take care of the planet.

School gardens are a great way to reconnect students to the wonders of nature.

Every child should learn where their food comes from.

What Teachers and Principals Say

"These gardens have given students a sense of confidence and responsibility with maintaining their own gardens, growing their own fruits and vegetables, learning the arts of that in the realm of STEAM, but then to create a business model out of that as well. I think it helps healthier eating habits, it brings the families together, the community together, so all encompassing, the impact Green Our Planet is making through these gardens within the Las Vegas community is just tremendous."

Drew Brees - NFL Quarterback

Founder of the Brees Dream Foundation

"We are very lucky at our school because thanks to the support…of Green Our Planet…the garden has had an enormous, positive impact at our school."

Jackie A Richardson - Principal

Crestwood Elementary School, Las Vegas, Nevada

"The excitement and joy that having an outdoor class such as this garden is an important element to moving our students towards being engaged in learning."

Miriam Benitez - Principal

John S Park Elementary School, Las Vegas NV

"Everyday, the students surprise me and fill me up with hope. I know for a fact Crestwood couldn't do this without you! Students and families are realizing their power while working in the garden. Our school culture is benefiting tremendously."
