The Galileo Garden is an amazing school garden in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Run down and useless tennis courts were transformed into a 26,000 sq. ft. garden with a 42′ dome greenhouse, 105 raised beds, and dozens of fruiting plants and trees. In this video Gardener Scott shares some of his many memories from the years of building the garden and sharing the experience with students, volunteers, and community members.
This video acknowledges Gardener Scott’s retirement as the
Galileo Master Gardener and his transition to a focus on his home garden and travel to encounter new experiences.
For additional perspective, see the video made to acknowledge Galileo winning the 2016 Environmental Stewardship Award. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-bF5ghUOvs&t=27s

Touching video You Sir have clearly made a difference and earned a long retirement. Enjoy. The school should enshrine that old hat.
I wish that I had been one of those students. Bless you sir.
Wonderful
Really beautiful story, thank you for sharing. I teared up hearing about those boys!
Very grateful to see how people like you care for kids. I wish we had a longer season here to do something like this!
Enjoyed the story Scott! will miss the hat 🙂
