Gardeners of the Future

Grow Some Good is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization here on Maui that is dedicated to teaching future generations about sustainability, the environment, and nutrition. Children grow produce in their school gardens, participate in fun outdoor activities, and team up with local chefs to create yummy snacks with the produce they’ve cultivated.

Children often go home and want to eat fresh vegetables and cook meals with their families. Kids are also motivated to have their own gardens at home. How cool is that?!

The program currently involves 12 schools and 3,000 kids participating in outdoor learning every month and is always reaching to involve more and more of the community.

Want to get involved? Grow Some Good is always looking for garden volunteers, and volunteers for Work and Learn Days, usually held once a month. Aside from volunteering, monetary donations and equipment/supply donations are welcome.
