Seed to Table Program at Greens Farms Academy

The Seed to Table program at Greens Farms Academy is a journey in which students embark to develop meaningful connections with the world around them through the exploration of food and natural communities. Food serves as an excellent medium for learning as it permeates our everyday lives and opens itself to lessons on topics such as environmental literacy, culture, health and nutrition, history, and creativity. The organic garden is Seed to Table’s outdoor classroom where students gain opportunities for hands-on and experiential learning.
