Career Readiness and Professional Development
Programme 03
Teachers who carry it forward
Teachers play a central part in our mission. Trained teachers are the ones who keep a school garden alive and teach through it every week.
We build their capacity to tackle food insecurity, teach climate education and bring STEM into school gardening. Our educators are how the STEM Garden model gets into school curricula. For students, we run career readiness sessions that open up paths in farming, science and climate work.
