GreenHive is an ecosystem of students, leaders, and climate activists (ages 18–25) who are passionate about climate action and environmental justice. As a signature program of the Fruitful Community Foundation, GreenHive empowers young people through education, advocacy, and hands-on environmental stewardship.

​

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to earth stewardship, environmental policy, and climate resilience, especially in urban communities. Through our long-standing partnership with DeKalb County and Roots Down, we've helped build climate-resilient, fruitful communities at libraries, senior centers, and community spaces across the county.

​​

GreenHive is more than a program — it’s a leadership pipeline. Our Leadership Program has graduated five cohorts of changemakers, including cohorts from Emory University, Georgia Tech, Georgia State, Agnes Scott, and our most recent  collaboration with the DeKalb Youth Commission. GreenHivers emerge equipped with real-world experience in advocacy, organizing, and sustainable land care.

​

We are proud to collaborate with partners like Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots, DeKalb County, IamGaleo, Fernbank Museum, and a growing network of schools and nonprofits. Together, we’re working to deepen the interconnectedness between people, policy, and the planet and building fruitful communities for a climate resilient future.
