Job description

This role is ideal for former classroom teachers who love teachingโ€”but are ready for a different environment.Ready to Grow Gardens is seeking highly adaptable, confident educators to lead hands-on, TEKS-aligned science instruction in outdoor classroom gardens across Houston-area elementary schools. This is not a passive or assistant role. Youโ€™ll lead groups independently, make real-time instructional decisions, and manage multiple grade levels throughout the dayโ€”using nature as your classroom. Garden Educator (Full or part time positions available/ School Year Only)

Ready to Grow Gardens โ€” Houston, TX

About Us

Ready to Grow Gardens (RTGG) is Houstonโ€™s premier outdoor education company. We partner with schools across the city to create and teach in living, outdoor classrooms โ€” organic vegetable and pollinator gardens where science comes to life.

Founded in 2002 by Stephanie Baker, a previously certified Texas Master Gardener, RTGG has grown to serve 35 schools across four districts for the 2025โ€“2026 school year. Our team of passionate garden educators helps students from PreKโ€“5th grade plant seeds, tend ecosystems, and harvest food โ€” all while connecting their work to Texas Science TEKS.

Now in our 23rd year, we are proud to be Texasโ€™s longest-running garden education company, inspiring over 20,000 students each year to get their hands in the soil and their minds in the science.

Schools are mainly located in CyFair ISD and Houston ISD around the Heights.

About the Role

Weโ€™re seeking applicants who love working with children, find joy in all things outdoors, and thrive in dynamic, ever-changing environments. We currently have open both a full time and a part time position.

As a Garden Educator, you are the face of Ready to Grow Gardens interacting with teachers, students, administrators, and parent volunteers. Youโ€™ll visit a different campus each day (one per day), teaching our pre-designed, TEKS-aligned lessons, in outdoor classrooms โ€” the garden.

This is not a traditional teaching job โ€” and thatโ€™s what makes it special. Thereโ€™s no grading, no discipline, and no parent contacts. Instead, your classroom is alive, unpredictable, and full of wonder. Youโ€™ll guide students as they explore science through nature and see firsthand the joy of curiosity blooming in real time.
