Two sweet, educationally curious, and energetic 2nd graders won the chance to have a private herbal workshop at their school.

They spent an hour drinking sun tea and making 4 plant-based crafts.

• Herbal Drinking Teas– Assemble a blend of your favorite herbs in a food-grade pouch. Close tightly to steep it in warm water. Let cool before drinking. Enjoy!
• Herbal Bath Teas– Assemble a blend of your favorite herbs in a pouch. Close tightly to steep it in a tub of warm water, and relax!
• Tussie-Mussie– Used in the Middle Ages to mask odor and fend off illness. Choose from a variety of potent plant parts to keep you fresh.
• Seed balls– made out of soil, clay, water, and seeds, this fun, and messy activity provides the opportunity for an instant garden wherever you throw them.

Many street trees are weak, damaged, and ugly. Many Bronx residents suffer from respiratory problems due to air pollution and other toxic factors. Most people don’t know how important street trees are in keeping our air clean and beautifying an area.

Our friends at River Garden invited our learning work crew from Sustainable South Bronx to come to help the garden with building fixing the tree pits and installing tree guards.

This protects our trees from damage such as soil compaction, waste/pollution from dogs, and human vandalism, plus it improves the health of the tree which improves our health, air, and water quality.

A twice-a-week program for middle school students through the Youth Bureau, for students to learn about the value of recycling, and sustainability while learning to make natural craft items to give as gifts.

They created handmade soaps, dream catchers, keepsake boxes, and more in this semester-long afterschool program.

In addition to teaching kids how to grow and care for plants, we also teach them how to make healthy, delicious meals with plants!

We worked with this elementary school to see 500 students, Kindergarten thru 5th grade, and created 4 seasonal cooking workshops!

Students looked forward to learning new kitchen tools, learning varieties of fruits and vegetables, and ways to eat them.

Students received a newsletter recipe sheet with fun facts about plants and educational games.
