Chicas Verdes will transform DaVinci Connect TK-8 School into a dynamic living laboratory with an edible garden and two native gardens. Our innovative garden programming will immerse students in hands-on learning, fostering a deep connection to nature and promoting holistic well-being. Students will learn sustainable food cultivation, cooking with garden produce, and balanced nutrition. Our curriculum covers ecology, environmental justice, climate change, and leadership, empowering students to drive positive community change.
