About
The Vision
My hope is to be able to offer Sprout and Blossom classes at different schools and locations in my community. I want as many children as possible to develop a love for nature and an interest in planting seeds and watching them grow.
I hope these classes will inspire children and parents to grow together.
Hi! I'm Gloria, born and raised in Redlands CA, and I am so excited to be offering gardening enrichment classes and subscription boxes for children.
I have worked as a preschool teacher and elementary paraeducator for 14 years. I have over 30 units in early childhood education.
​
In 2018 I earned my BA in Public Relations, I previously worked for a children's garden, where I wore many hats from managing the social media to creating fundraising events. I also created and implemented curriculum for various programs on site.
​
I have created Summer Day Camp programs, Outdoor Learning Days, and other programs to get children into the garden and outside enjoying what nature has to offer.
​
Technology is great, there are so many wonderful resources, some of which I use for supplemental activities. However, nature is better! I believe that children, now more than ever, need to get outside to play, learn, grow, and explore.
