Transformations of Gardens
We transform school gardens into stimulating environments where children can freely develop and strengthen their connection to the surrounding world.
We helped transform our first school garden back in 2010. Over the next 14 years, we pursued a clear goal: to create beautiful spaces for children’s spontaneous outdoor activities. In total, we have transformed 22 school gardens. However, we gradually realized that we wanted to do more. Transforming gardens alone is not enough. What also matters is the role of teachers working in these gardens and how they can be used for high‑quality education. For us, a garden is not just a place where children can move and play. It is a space for discovery, interactive learning, and child development in direct contact with nature.

Our garden transformations
We have 22 restored gardens that serve as examples of best practices and places for experience exchange. From the progressive preschools (MŠ DUHA Soběslav, MŠ Mnichovice, MŠ Telecí, and MŠ Vincenc Makovský in Ostrava), we have created educational centers that continue to spread our philosophy.
Educational Center of DUHA Soběslav Kindergarten
In the new design of the school garden in Soběslav, we have reflected all seven colors of the rainbow. That’s exactly how many zones can now be found in this charming and inviting space. Each zone has its own color, symbolizing both its unique purpose and its quality.
Educational Center of Mnichovice Kindergarten
At the beginning, there was a vision of a new school garden with a well‑thought‑out concept. Then we joined in and helped turn the architect's and her team's design into reality. This is how a new world of play, learning, and gathering was born—one that the local community, and especially the children, instantly fell in love with.
Educational Center of Telecí Kindergarten
We helped the kindergarten create ideal conditions for environmental education in its garden while preserving its family‑friendly character. As a result, the space has naturally become a center of activity in this picturesque Pardubice village, where it blends in beautifully.
Educational Center of Kindergarten Vincenc Makovský in Ostrava
We transformed a space once filled with asphalt and concrete at a housing estate kindergarten in Ostrava into a pleasant grassy area, enriched with garden beds, water features, and even a living willow structure. The nonprofit parents' association Veselá školička now has a beautiful new space where they can host various events for people from the wider community.
Educational Center of Čtyřlístek Kindergarten in Kadaň
We supported the creation of a new "four‑leaf clover" garden. Children, parents, and teachers from the kindergarten continue to express their gratitude for our efforts in replacing old equipment and giving the overgrown greenery and entire garden a beautiful yet highly functional new design.
