Help Oak Ridge Garden

Support one of our biggest projects of establishing a garden at Oak Ridge High School. 

This garden will be a place for the whole student body: "outdoor lab" for science students; serene space for wellness-counseling; hands-on place for special education; garden for growing a green-thumb; and ingredients for culinary classes. 

Our Work

Transforming Landscape

Transforming school decorative lawns into native, low-water usage plants not only reduces water, but it also creates a space for native wildlife and science classes to enjoy.​

Reducing Food Waste

As food waste and uneaten foods become a bigger issue, we are trying to tackle it through composting and recovering uneaten foods at our school.

Community Outreach

Educating our Community

A big part of One Green Step is our community outreach. It's our opportunity to raise awareness about environmental issues and inspire others to help through One Green Steps.

Free Library

Environmental-curated Books

Having an environmentally-curated free library—made from old, wooden fences—at school allows students and community members to quick browse and learn more about environmental topics.
