Rockland Country Day School Organic Garden

RCDS organic garden program was founded as an exploratory native plant garden. Over the years a small pond has been added and raised beds were built and a solar powered shed with a hot house was built, all done by students and volunteers.

We are educating k-8 students on a year round basis (inside during inclement months) focusing on incoporating STEM in to every lesson and connecting our program to other Parteners for Change affiliates and create a truly sustainable organic edible garden and garden-to-cafeteria experience.

The Florida Farm to School program partners local farms with K-12 schools to provide Florida children with nourishing, locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables in school cafeterias.

Sustainable Kids

Since 2007, the students of Rhode Street School in Dinsdale, Hamilton, New Zealand have created annual Vision Maps as part of their Enviroschools inquiry unit on sustainability. From these student-centred and voiced ideas came the popular theme of growing their own healthy food. The students also wanted to learn how to prepare and cook the produce and, finally, how to market and share their surplus.

Antigua International School

The Antigua International School (AIS) was founded to provide a world-class education, based on critical thinking, to the children of Guatemala, regardless of their socio-economic status.  Half of AIS's student body receives scholarships to attend. Through an Edible Schoolyard, our hope is to educate students and the extended community on the benefits of growing their own food.  AIS's diverse student population provides a great opportunity to create positive nutritional changes in Guatemala.
