Parental Guidance
Please make sure to help your child create this chia pet if needed. It is fairly simple, you can learn more about what it will look like in this video from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHrCCgpxTSI
* Please make sure your child waters their chia pet after class to avoid getting water on any electronics.
Supply List
- 1-2 pantyhose socks (thin, adult sized socks are best) - Dry bean seeds (or if you don’t have it, sunflower, chia, or grass seeds will work) - A single use plastic or paper cup to decorate (white would show decorations most) - Rubber Band - Markers to decorate the cup (sharpies work best) - ½ cup soil - Spoon - Spray bottle *Optional: googly eyes, glue, stickers, and pipe cleaner **Video example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHrCCgpxTSI

Teacher expertise and credentials
I truly believe that kids should learn about nature and growing plants from a young age as important members of our ecosystem. Working with children is a passion of mine as I love to make learning fun!
Gardening, Florida Ecology, and Sustainability classes will be offered to students from 5 years old to 10 years old. All of my experiences working with growing food, creating Florida native ecosystems, and leading sustainability efforts around Orlando, Florida has prepared me to be a well experienced and educated teacher, ready to get the ball rolling with classes!
I have over 7 years of garden education experience. I have taught at Inspiring Minds Day School in Windermere, Florida for over 3 years. I acted as Horticultural Specialist and Live-In Caretaker to Historic Botanical Nehrling Gardens for four years, creating a garden education program. I have worked since 2015 with an acclaimed urban agriculture program called Fleet Farming as a Urban Agriculture Farmer and Educator. Fleet Farming is part of our environmental non-profit IDEAS For Us that leads sustainability education and action all across the world. I have taught at conferences and groups from 50 - 100 adults to smaller hands-on homeschool classes for kids.
I have a degree in Landscape and Horticulture Technology from Valencia College, a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Studies from Rollins College, and numerous awards including serving as the International Arboriculture Society's Student Ambassador in 2015 and as a consistent Bloom and Grow Scholarship Winner from 2013-2016.
When I am not gardening, I love to rollerblade and hangout with my big fluffy cat Freya.
