Read about our innovative Green Grounds Certification, the first certification focused on eliminating pesticide use from campus grounds.
Are you a student looking to make a difference in your community? Let's eliminate pesticides + rewild your campus! Together we can make a difference.
Re:wild Your Campus is leading a nationwide movement to transform campuses into vibrant, sustainable, and safe environments. Starting with these places of living and learning, we are creating a new way of living in sync with nature. We are on a mission to eliminate synthetic pesticides from all college campuses in the U.S. by 2030.
At Re:wild Your Campus, we believe in the power of collaboration. We work closely with campus administrators, students, faculty, and local organizations to eliminate synthetic pesticides, implement organic land care, and rewild spaces through projects tailored to each campus's unique needs and goals. Our educational programming and training offerings span from workshops for students and community members which explore pesticide use and environmental justice, to our signature hands-on training for groundskeepers that outlines the basics of organic land care. Together, we can create a lasting impact and inspire change far beyond the boundaries of campus.
We do it because we know the facts and believe that every person who steps foot on a university campus has a right to be safe from toxic pesticides. Pesticides are poisons, and more than 90% of Americans have detectable pesticides in their bodies. These chemicals are devastating to human health and cause catastrophic harm to the environment. It doesn’t have to be this way, and we are committed to providing viable alternatives and rewilding campuses to improve human and environmental health, foster biodiversity, and fight climate change.
Re:wild Your Campus, founded by students for students, launches a new way for colleges and universities to celebrate their commitment to enhancing biodiversity and climate resilience through greening campus grounds.
Your contribution to Re:wild Your Campus supports the vision of a toxin-free world created by student action. You are empowering the next generation of environmental leaders to create safer, more sustainable living and learning environments for all as they advocate for organic land care on their campuses and beyond. Thank you for joining the movement and recognizing the power of youth voices rising – we are so grateful!
Re:wild Your Campus Wants to Turn College Campuses Into Climate-Resilient Green Spaces
It's time to say goodbye to lush lawns on college campuses.
A new environmental movement has college students beseeching school officials to switch to organic lawn care — or let well-manicured campus quads grow wild.
