She will be working with Planeteer Alliance and programming. Carter said she is “inspired by Captain Planet Foundation’s mission to address the climate crisis through local, high-impact projects that empower communities and young people who may not otherwise have access to these opportunities”. Her favorite animal is a green sea turtle! 🐢 Chloe Seward - Chloe is also a rising senior at Emory University, majoring in Psychology. She will be working with the Green Heart STEM Challenge this summer.

Her favorite animal is a giraffe! 🦒 Layla Joyner - Layla is a rising junior at Georgia State University, majoring in Business Management. She will be working with Project Learning Garden this summer and was drawn to work with Captain Planet Foundation because “they are a mission-driven organization that uses their highly structured operations and passion for environmental change to empower youth to be sustainability and social justice leaders”. Her favorite animal is a corgi! 🐶 Marlowe McIntyre - Marlowe is a rising junior at Skidmore College, majoring in Business & Political Science. She will be working with the Marketing & Development teams this summer and was drawn to Captain Planet “because of the way that they impact local communities (especially Atlanta) and the organization’s involvement with real schools and students alongside the growth they promote within the organization”. Her favorite animal is an elephant! 🐘 We are excited to see all of the amazing work our interns accomplish & to welcome them to Captain Planet Foundation! 🌎

Attention Educators! Join us on Zoom TODAY for our monthly PLG Virtual Information Session. This is your chance to ask questions, provide feedback, hear about new updates, and to connect with fellow PLG garden educators! Register at the link in our bio on Instagram! Hope to see you there! All sessions are recorded.

Special moments happen in Project Learning Gardens every day, but this one was especially meaningful to our team. When the PLG garden at Factory Shoals Elementary in Atlanta needed a little extra care, an unexpected opportunity arose. The very next day, our longtime partner Kathy Kellogg Johnson of Kellogg Garden Products reached out looking for a school in Atlanta to support. That connection led to a wonderful day of community, service, and celebration, culminating in a Fairy Garden Party last Friday. Kathy and members of her family joined Captain Planet Foundation, Organic Control, Home Depot spokesman Danny Watson, and other volunteers to help refresh and revitalize the garden space for students to enjoy. We’re grateful for partners who continue to show up for schools and help gardens thrive!

Thank you @coxenterprises for another great garden installation in Burlington, VT at Integrated Arts Academy!

PLG hosted another spring garden installation in Grand Rapids, MI. Thank you to the dedicated and engaged funder, Dematic, and Central Elementary for the months of planning and hard work with students, parents, teachers, CPF staff, and Dematic volunteers.

On Friday, May 15th, Project Learning Garden was honored to boost the vibrant garden at Deerwood Academy! Together with our amazing partners at Cox Enterprises, we added five brand-new garden beds to their already thriving school garden. Many thanks to Garden Coordinator Ursula Kenwood and her daughter Kendall Rae Johnson (the youngest certified farmer in the nation!) along with the incredible students, educators, and volunteers who made it all happen. And the best part? A greenhouse is on the way, thanks to the Georgia Tech Atlanta chapter of Engineers Without Borders! We’re excited to see how Deerwood Academy’s garden will bloom and teach for years to come! 🌸
