CITYSPROUTS INC

CitySprouts Garden Educators currently teach in 24 public schools where they also maintain thriving school garden classrooms; 12 in Cambridge neighborhoods and 12 in Boston. We engage students from Pre-K to 8th grade in our in-school Early Start in Science programs and our after school and summer Green Team Program.

CitySprouts reaches children from the age of 3, when they begin their school journey, until age 14 when they graduate from middle school. Our two programs take place in and around public school gardens, making them familiar and accessible places in the neighborhood where young people live, learn and play. The CitySprouts program is supported in part through district-wide service contracts with the cities of Boston and Cambridge. Unique in the country, the two-decade public-nonprofit partnership has resulted in more green space in schools, an increase in outdoor learning, and a commitment to making elementary science education accessible to students of all backgrounds and learning styles.
