As part of a special initiative to seed the market and spark excitement, RAYN Growing Systems is donating 50 EdRacks to deserving schools across the country.

One especially powerful story comes from Apalachee Highschool in Georgia, a school rebuilding after a tragic school shooting. The agricultural program lost its greenhouse and garden spaces - key components of hands-on learning and student wellness. The ag teacher applied for an EdRack to help restore experiential learning and provide a therapeutic outlet for students.

Their application stood out among many, and the school was selected as a recipient of the EdRack Giveaway through NAAE (National Association of Agricultural Educators). The mobile hydroponic system will allow students to explore plant science, sustainability, and STEM - while also supporting emotional recovery and resilience. The teacher shared that the EdRack will be integrated into “Wellness Wednesday” groups, where students affected by the tragedy find support and purpose.

This story is a powerful reminder of how innovation, compassion, and education can come together to truly make magic. A huge thank you to the entire RAYN team for their incredible work on the EdRack Giveaway and don’t forget to support our friends at NAAE.
