    —Ms. Kathryn Komar, Eleanor Roosevelt High School

  • A group of children working together on a science experiment involving a piece of equipment, in a classroom with educational posters and a whiteboard.

    "The students were amazed to see plants could be grown in water and without soil! They loved checking each day and they're excited to continue with the system next school year!"

    - Ms. Heather Callahan, Charlotte Lappla Elementary School (Wellsboro Area School District)

  • Green and red tomatoes growing on a vine inside a greenhouse, surrounded by green leaves and supported by white stakes.

    “My students loved to see the progress of the plants, day by day, week by week. Especially once tomatoes started to ripen! There were many requests for the lettuce and kale that was grown. All who took produce from the GrowBox were pleased about the taste and freshness! Having the GrowBox at the front of my room for everyone who passes the classroom to see is a great aid in marketing my classes!”

    —Mr. Joel Rudderow, Penns Grove High School
