PLG Educator Certification

After over a decade of the Captain Planet Foundation’s Project Learning Garden Program (PLG), we’re thrilled to present the PLG Educator and School Certifications; valuable initiatives created to strengthen our collaboration and support for your school’s garden-based learning journey.
