Back to School and Back to the Garden!

The Grow Portland team is back with students for another year of learning, tasting, exploration and garden fun! Join our team and over 6,300 students in tending gardens, learning outside, and supporting Garden School! We invite you to get involved and make a lasting impact at Grow Portland. You can provide consistent, year-round support for school gardens, helping educators, teachers and students plan, plant, harvest, and learn together.

Here’s how to get Involved:  

The gardens are more than just green spaces- they’re living classrooms where students learn about healthy food, the environment, and the joy of growing something with their own hands.

Join us in support of school gardens!

 
 
 

Grow Portland supports schools and communities by facilitating hands-on garden experiences that foster connections to food, nature and each other.

I thought the vegetables were going to taste like nothing, but when I tried them they were really good! The program gave me tips about how I could make my own garden on my own.
