This past Earth Day, we officially launched Woolly School Garden, our initiative to educate children about plants, nutrition and growing healthy food!
A Woolly School Garden is everything a school needs to create an outdoor garden classroom and begin teaching gardening and nutrition: Woolly Pockets, do-it-yourself hardware & instructions, premium soil for edible gardening, organic seeds, planting chart, gardening manual and nutrition curriculum.
If your school has the budget, we send you your Woolly School Garden. If your school doesn’t have the budget, we’ll sign you up for donations, help raise the money for you and then send you your Woolly School Garden. Our goal is to grow 1000 school gardens by Fall 2010 and an additional 10,000 school gardens by Fall 2011.
What does a school need to receive a garden?
* At least one teacher or school garden manager.
* A sunny wall or fence that doesn’t get beat up by soccer balls.
* $1,000 or a few months of patience while we raise the money.
Take the next step today by making a donation or signing up your school for a Woolly School Garden! Thanks to Authentacity.com for the great video!
Hello,
I am fundraising head in an environmental club at my school. We have various gardens at school in our district. We were wondering if WollyPocket would help our program raise money. Our gardens are maintained by students who have a passion for learning and caring about the environment. It would be spectacular if you could help us with our cause.
Thank You
