2026 ENVIRONMENTAL AND COMMUNITY IMPACT AWARDEES
We are excited honor two special leaders with the Environmental & Community Impact Award, two dedicated individuals and steadfast partners who have built garden education into the culture and fabric of their school communities.
Min-Jen Taylor, Boston Principal
As an educator and leader, I am deeply committed to creating meaningful learning opportunities that connect students to the world around them through hands-on, integrated experiences. I believe that learning without walls empowers both teachers and students to explore, discover, and build authentic real-world connections.
Through my partnership with CitySprouts, students witness tiny seeds grow into sunflowers, plant and harvest vegetables, and transform their crops into salads and lemonade. Families participate in spring garden cleanups, neighbors collect fresh produce, and our garden becomes a vibrant space where learning, collaboration, and community grow together.
Darrell Williams, Cambridge Principal
