The Problem
Our mission is to connect children and our larger community directly to the origins of their food and to inspire them to make healthy and responsible food choices. This week, our students are of a mixed-age level so we want to introduce our sustainability concepts on a more general level. Our wish is for them to grasp the connections between the food they harvest in the garden, the colors of the food they put in their body and how it nourishes them, and the amount of waste produced by throwing away food.
