Planet Good Earth curate seasonal youth programmes open to all education settings and community initiatives that provide socio-economic sustainability. Like-minded partners help craft fun and healthy learning activities that give back to our health, the Earth and the environment support these. The programme donates resourceful zines, seeds and plant material to support young people in protecting our planet and cultivating a sustainable future.
Having a presence at RHS Chelsea with the support of Project Giving Back will allow Planet Good Earth to drive a bigger movement towards a better world, with a £ 3 million fund-raising campaign to drive vibrant, inclusive community initiatives nationwide that will create fun and flexible healthy learning spaces for young people, supporting socio-economic development.
Planet Good Earth will champion youth empowerment and well-being for young people, focusing on outdoor learning. The campaign will create mixed-use educational hubs designed to Passivhaus standards that will lead a new generation of zero-carbon builds nationwide, combining informal play spaces, sensory gardens, and public allotments. The scheme will drive health and well-being within communities, becoming a place to share skills, have fun, make friends, and an opportunity to share passions among diverse age groups.
After the show, the garden will be relocated to Hay Castle Trust, a centre for arts, literature and learning in Hay-on-Wye , supported by Black Mountains College. This project is poised to pioneer an innovative, creative education format that supports health and wellbeing, not only within Wales but also as a model for broader adoption.
