FIND US ALL AROUND THE CASPER COMMUNITy!
The Casper Community Greenhouse Project has worked on garden projects all around Casper, from school greenhouses to community gardens, garden walls to our new Urban Farm.
school greenhouses
Our vision for the future of our community starts with our children.
From the ground up, we work with Natrona County School District and school's staff to garner involvement in a greenhouse classroom. We help to fund and staff the construction process, but we don't stop there. A greenhouse is just a shed without someone to help it grow. Our project helps hire a part-time greenhouse manager to care for the facility.
Each school uses their greenhouse classroom for different learning applications. Integrating with parts of their curriculum like creative writing, STEAM, business and entrepreneurship, sales and marketing, biology, propagation, chemistry, and so much more.
Read about our schools and how they have made their greenhouses an interactive class experience.
Park Elementary school
This is our newest greenhouse build, completed in March 2023. This school is excited to have a space to grow and learn entrepreneurial skills. Park plans on setting up a farm stand to sell some of what they learn to grow. The students of the garden club created a dream board of what they would love to grow in their greenhouse. We are excited to be a part of making those dreams a reality!
Evansville Elementary
The Garden Club here has an annual Mother's Day Plant Sale. Students learn all costs and time that it takes to have plants to sell. They use business practices to evaluate costs of seeds, dirt, time, pots, water, and demand. They also learn about many different types of tropical, desert, and aquaponic plants. The koi fish help to grow some of the plants they learn can be grown by propagation.
Journey Elementary
Students here focus on food production, they love how their homegrown veggies taste better than the store-bought varieties! Check out the outdoor sensory garden and summer growing space.

We help plant and manage this garden that was setup by a generous landlord with dreams of a growing space being put to use in a low income neighborhood.

We partnered with the board and members at the clubhouse to get the greenhouse kit and build it, start some growing spaces and make plans for the future of their converted playground space.
Iris Clubhouse
Some yards are too perfect to want to change, but we can find any space to grow vegetables! This home grows so much in just the space along the alleyway, ask us how a garden consultation will help you expand your available grow space.
Alley Garden 12th and wolcott
Maggie & Nick M. had a beautiful landscaped yard that we helped add edible plants to. We curated plants with the exisiting space to produce food that would help sustain their family.
