Habitat Discovery

Bringing nature play and learning to Baltimore City schools


Partner schools can choose one or all of the below options.

Program Offerings

Garden Creation and Maintenance

This program creates, or resets, a school garden to enhance the educational opportunities available on school grounds. 


Our dedicated education staff also maintains the garden throughout the summer months when school is not in session.

Educational Lessons for Students

Our educators visit schools weekly to provide educational content during school hours, or by facilitating after school garden clubs.

Professional Development for Teachers

We visit schools quarterly during their professional development days to provide insights, ideas, tips, and tricks to infusing the garden into their respective subjects.

Field Trips to BLISS Meadows

Self-guided or facilitated trips to our urban farm, BLISS Meadows, for animal encounters, honey tastings, and woodland wonders.
