"You can see the pride in their faces when they hold the trays they’ve grown. It’s not just plants, it’s confidence. BLOOOM gave our participants something tangible to care for and succeed at.”

“Integrating BLOOOM into our vocational training changed the energy in the classroom. Students who once hesitated to take initiative are now leading the process: planting, harvesting, even managing small sales.”
— Vocational Instructor at Pepin Academies
