Our Delivery Partners

Little Green Thumbs is delivered locally by a network of regional non-profit and educational organizations. This collective network helps us mobilize knowledge and skills, and inspires on-going innovation in the Little Green Thumbs program. We are grateful for such dynamic partners, who are bringing learning to life for thousands of students across Canada!

Little Green Thumbs is supported nationally by Agriculture in the Classroom Canada (AITC-C).  Through a passion for creating meaningful educational experiences, AITC-C works to foster a passion for lifelong learning through collaboration and creativity.

Our Funders

We are thrilled with the support of diverse and community-minded funding partners, without whom Little Green Thumbs gardens would not grow. We extend our most sincere appreciation for our national, provincial and regional partners, and the relationships of respect, encouragement and passion which characterize them.

Thank you to our National Funding Partner, Nutrien

“Little Green Thumbs is more than just gardening. It’s about fostering healthy eating habits and challenging students to think about world food sustainability.”
