Green Our Planet
With a mission to conserve and improve the environment GoP brings the worlds of nature, technology and education together to create alchemy! We provide 'know how' and infrastructure to rockstar teachers who want their students to learn about about science, nutrition, technology, and nature through building and tending their own outdoor and indoor gardens at school! We know that when students in PreK-12th grade schools learn about STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math), they absorb and engage better by doing! Green Our Planet (GoP) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit conservation organization that runs the largest and one of the most comprehensive school garden programs in the United States.
