Become a School Partner.

One Cool Earth partners with schools, nonprofits, and other youth organizations to give children a place to grow. A partnership with One Cool Earth is an investment in a school garden program that will impact youth's development and wellbeing.

The Earth Genius Program


Teacher Trainings


Family Cooking Nights


We'll recruit, hire, train and manage a passionate, qualified Garden Educator Manager (GEM) who will work at your school or childcare facility one day each week throughout the school year. The GEM will improve and maintain the school garden and integrate with your school's unique goals, teaching lessons related to nutrition, science and environmental stewardship.
You'll receive training to build a culture of garden education in your school and district. High quality, focused trainings like ours have been shown to improve teacher confidence and skill and contribute directly to student achievement in science, language art, and nutrition. This training will teach how to utilize the garden as a platform for learning science standards while supporting student health and wellness.
Family Cooking Nights encourage families to adopt cooking and eating together regularly. Cooking at home equips children with the skills to cook for themselves as adults and empowers them to take into consideration their portions and nutritional content of meals. It also provides time for families connect, which imparts social and health benefits! Family cooking nights engage the whole school community in a positive event.
