My Project

We are creating an indoor garden in my New York City classroom.

Butterflies will bring our garden to life.

We do not have the space for an outdoor garden. Nothing stops little farmer scientists. We can do hard things. These amazing children are building a farm in a 3rd floor NYC classroom.

We will be growing our own food. Let's really make this garden come to life with some butterflies!

My little scientists' eyes open wide with excitement each time that they enter my room. I want to make this experience as amazing and memorable as I can. These little scientists deserve the best!

Help me make their smiles even bigger! :)
