Openlands Building School Gardens

Building School Gardens installs gardens at Chicago public schools to achieve the following purposes:

The Carrot Academy

The Carrot Academy is an initiative to offer alternative classroom like experiences to youth at our LOVE Building facility. A traditional Academy event allows children to go out into the garden and work with plants, weed and harvest, compost and plant. They then take some of  their bounty into the kitchen, prepare their meal and sit down and talk about a topic related to their self sufficiency, self esteem and sustainable food systems. Then they wash up and put their dishes away.

Springhouse Green

 The reinvention of our food system is now part of the national dialogue with employers, employees, and communities at large looking to positively affect today’s concerns about escalating health care costs, food security and nutrition, personal and family health, community development, and “carbon footprint.” Springhouse Green offers simple solutions for greening corporate and community spaces with vegetable garden buildouts, nutrition counseling, lunch-and-learn workshops, garden maintenance services, and LEED applications.

Manitoba Nature Summit, Inc.

The Manitoba Nature Summit Inc. is a volunteer-run, non-profit organization invested in incorporating nature into children's lives. Research shows that children have become alienated from nature and its curative and inspiring effects. How do we reconnect children - who spend an average of between 1.5 to 6.5 hours a day with electronic media (Kaiser Family Foundation, 2005 and 2006) - back to the outdoors?

National Farm to School Network

The National Farm to School Network envisions a nation in which Farm to School programs are an essential component of strong and just local and regional food systems, ensuring the health of all school children, farms, the environment, economy and communities.

Campos Community Garden

Campos Community Garden is a community garden under the auspices of GREENTHUMB and NYC Parks and Recreation, located in Manhattan's East Village.
