Orchards as Outdoor Classrooms

Garden and Orchard Planted at Indian Township School

The planting season was full of highlights; to get a glimpse of some of the magic, take a look at the video from the Indian Township planting below. Planting fruit trees with students, creating an enduring legacy with them and providing fodder for inspired environmental stewardship is truly empowering.  We are working to keep the power of this excitement growing through lessons we have been developing.  The lessons we generate allow teachers to utilize the orchards as outdoor classrooms with students.

Richard Hodges, ReTreeUS Program Manager

Our orchards are planted at no expense for public schools that apply to our program.
