These weekly classes introduce children between the ages of 3 to 5 and 6 to 10 to the plant world. Students learn through classroom instruction, but also by eating plants—they eat rice after learning about the rice plant and how it feeds much of the world; drink green smoothies after learning about photosynthesis; taste honey sticks after learning about bees; make pizza gardens and then taste each of the plants in their homemade pizza. In recognition of your generosity, yours or your company’s name or logo will be displayed on the National Fund website and in all Gala-related social media.

Monthly Teacher Trainings occur throughout the year for elementary, middle and high school teachers and other educators seeking professional development. Your generosity will support these training sessions and connect teachers to the U.S. Botanic Garden and its plant collections. In recognition of your generosity, yours or your company’s name or logo will be displayed on the National Fund website and in all Gala-related social media.
