Meet the kids & their grown-ups

A crew of curious minds.

Every friend brings a different way of noticing. They learn by trying, listening and changing their plans together.

Approved character reference: Julian, Antonello, Jean Paul and Hugo.

The question starter

Julian

He begins at eight with one seed and a very small pot. He learns to watch carefully, test ideas and make room for other voices.

The playful predictor

Antonello

Julian’s first friend asks funny questions and makes surprising predictions. Trying things turns his skepticism into dependable help.

The thoughtful maker

Jean Paul

He listens, sketches and helps connect ideas. His drawings become plans that the whole group can improve.

The enthusiastic sorter

Gino

He likes recipes and timers. Compost teaches him that a living process has its own pace.

The careful observer

Adrianna

She notices garden creatures, draws what she sees and gives visitors room. Curiosity never needs a capture jar.

The steady comparer

Ana-Emilia

She pays attention to water and evidence. A fair comparison helps the crew ask better questions.

The garden detective

Antonio

He loves a mystery. He learns that a suspect is a starting idea, and an observation is something you can check.

The thoughtful designer

Catalina

She gardens in containers and uses a blue manual wheelchair. Her ideas help everyone notice reach, paths and room to grow.

The neighbor who opens the gate

Hugo

A warm invitation begins the journey. He shares experience and gradually steps back as the children take more responsibility.

The supportive teacher

Christine

She helps the school begin a manageable growing pilot with staff support, permission and a care plan.

The welcoming neighbor

Allegra

She brings people together around food, with safe preparation and invitations that leave room for everyone.

A story about learning together.

No child owns the school garden, and no one has to grow the biggest plant to belong. The crew shares decisions. Adults handle permissions, tools and responsibility for the places they use.
