📢 Meet Noelle! 📢

Noelle is an artist and educator who loves helping students connect creativity with the natural world. She has six years of teaching experience in Prince George's County, where she taught visual arts, media arts, math, and English while developing engaging, student-centered curriculum.

Her love of gardening began at VCUarts after joining a community garden and growing her first successful summer garden. Since then, she has continued learning through a six-month organic farm work exchange and internships at Dumbarton Oaks and Foxhaven Herb Farm.

Noelle believes that art and nature inspire curiosity, creativity, and confidence. She is excited to support SNAC's mission by creating meaningful outdoor learning experiences that help students build lasting connections with the environment.

The zucchini is sprawling, the weeds are winning somewhere, and half the internet is telling you your garden should look like a magazine spread, but it doesn't have to.

The "tidy garden" standard didn't come from what grows food best, it came from status signaling, estate lawns, and commercial monocropping. And it quietly tells working parents, disabled gardeners, neurodivergent gardeners, and anyone on a budget that they're doing it wrong.

Wild gardens feed people. Dense, chaotic planting is often better design. And a bed full of weeds that gets 10 minutes a day still puts food on the table.

Your garden doesn't have to look like anyone else's to count!
