Learn how fast fashion has influenced the economy and the environment. You are encouraged to bring a few items that can be repurposed or refashioned. We do not have access to sewing machines so items will be pinned together with safety pins and you can sew it when you get home.

Another table to hand out seeds, and showcase our fall programs.

2024 Year End Review
Another year has come and gone and we wanted to give everyone a chance to see what we've been up to during the past year. Much of what we do could not be accomplished without the support of our affiliates and members of the community.
We truly appreciate all of you.
With your help we have been able to conduct in-school programs after school programs, establish a seed library, attend state ​conferences, and foster new partnerships.​​
