Vision & Mission

V: We believe that every child is born a plant explorer ! Ready to explore their local flora. Ready to share their interesting discoveries (cuttings of plants, new growth, and even bugs!). And ready to experience the loving and giving nature of mother earth.

M: We believe that positive experiences in nature are likely to affect children’s future relationships with the natural world and instill a greater sense of environmental concern for generations to come. As you know our children are the future and of the planet’s. And so it’s crucial to expose our children early on about sustainability education (i.e. ecology, conservation and etc.) in order to help children develop an appreciation, understanding and connection for the Earth and all its inhabitants (co-exist).

Plant Pals Club - Family

What is Plant Pals Club?

Plant Pals Club, is a free science program where young plant explorers will be given 1 free plants to love and take care of. The plant they receive will have its own difficulty level (i.e. easy, medium or hard) along with activities that they can complete.. At the end of the month, they will fill out a post-survey with all the plant care information they have observed and collected. This child led data will be used to make recommendations for classroom plants across the Bay Area :)

*Note: This is not an in-person program.

Plant Pals Club - Classrooms
