What Inspired Us

"If they grow it,
they'll eat it."

Most growing kits produce a few ounces of produce. Our farms produce 100 salads a week — enough that growing becomes practice, not a novelty.

One system. Unlimited ways to learn.

Our farm is designed to be a versatile learning tool and fit seamlessly into the subjects you're already teaching. From life sciences to culinary arts, the same system powers completely different learning experiences across your school.
STEM & Life Sciences
A living system with a new result every week. Run parallel experiments across 12 trays — different light levels, nutrients, varieties, densities. Biology, chemistry, and environmental science, all running at once. NGSS-aligned.
STEM
Health & Nutrition
Students who grow food develop a direct relationship with what they eat. Ownership drives behavior. At 100 salads a week, nutrition education becomes nutrition practice — not a poster on the wall.
Health and Nutrition
Culinary Arts & CTE
Grown in the classroom, plated in the kitchen. Students harvest what they planted and understand food from root to salad bowl. They train on commercial-grade equipment used in real Ag-Tech and controlled environment agriculture careers.

From the Field

"With the help of Inspired Growing, our students are learning to cultivate and cook with fresh produce grown right in their own high school. We're not just growing food, we're growing opportunity."

Roger León

Superintendent, Newark Vocational High School

"Urban agriculture fights food insecurity and builds stronger communities. This is exactly the work we need."

Rep. Rob Menendez

Community Partner

"Every week the kids ask, 'Are we planting this week?' They absolutely love it. It becomes a real learning opportunity because they're learning every step of the way."

Joanne Sommer

Teacher, Michelle Obama Elementary

"We placed the farm at the front of our building so it becomes a focal point for families—something they can see, experience, and taste."

Michael Schurr

Teacher, Riverdale Country School

"I don't see a school out there that wouldn't benefit, on multiple levels, from having an Inspired Growing farm."

Daniel Goldowsky

Teacher, KIPP College Prep
