Woodstock North High School Garden

The Woodstock North High School Garden is dedicated to creating a successful, sustainable outdoor classroom using organic methods, for the benefit of the students, staff, and community. Children learn to enjoy gardening in a positive manner, learn healthy eating habits, and learn how to use gardening to survive and prosper in the world, through decision-making, collaboration, and responsibility. The garden provides food for the school cafeteria, culinary arts, and an in-house food pantry for students of needy families.

Rappahannock County Nutrition Services/Farm-to-Table Program

The FARM-to-TABLE PROGRAM (aka “F2T”) is a partnership between Headwaters, the Rappahannock County Public Schools, and other community organizations. Planted at Rappahannock County High School in 2004, the program branched out and now provides fertile soil for learning to students in many disciplines at both the high school and Rappahannock County Elementary School.

Healthy Lunch, Healthy Lives

Pacific High School (PHS) has a unique school lunch program, in which fresh, nutritious, homemade lunches are prepared and served by students. Our goal is to alleviate poverty in Southeast Alaska by developing and documenting this lunch program into a replicable model that includes farm-to-school and summer food service / student employment programs. High school students are powerful connectors between schools, families, and communities. By providing healthy, homemade food to students, they learn to enjoy it, and bring that enjoyment back to their families.

Sustainable Summer

Our summer adventures in sustainability are for students age 15 to 18. Travel to Ecuador with us this summer and explore concepts such as organic farming and sustainable development through a unique program that combines adventure travel, cultural immersion, and environmental education.

Hopewell Organic Garden of Hope

The goal of the Hopewell Organic Garden of hope is to develop partnership with the community and the Senior Citizens to create friendships and build community spirit. Gardeners that will benefit in the raising of crops can share garden tips and advice. This will stimulate positive social interaction. Continued education via partnership with local horticulture programs will increase the effectiveness of the garden as well as increase the skills of the families and youth involved in the community garden.

 

 

The Food Project

Since 1991, The Food Project has been providing the Boston area with innovative community and youth programming based upon the belief that everyone deserves healthy, delicious food. Following sustainable agricultural practices, TFP farms on over 40 acres of land in urban and suburban communities in eastern Massachusetts. The Food that TFP grows is intended to increase access to healthy food; it is sold at Farmer’s Markets that accept EBT, WIC and senior coupons, sold as CSA shares, and donated to local hunger relief organizations. TFP youth engagement is integral to all of our programs.
