Cliff Valley School

 The Outdoor Classroom is a hallmark of Cliff Valley School – and a trendsetter in Atlanta education. Every classroom has its own dedicated outdoor learning space for planting and exploration. Our building was constructed with a custom-designed, open-air, environmental education classroom for teaching, learning – and getting dirty. Led by an environmental education specialist, the program integrates cross-curricular learning with involvement in conservation issues and seed-to-table practices.

Global Roots

  Global Roots is 501c3 non-profit organization registered in Washington State. The principal activity of Global Roots is to seek out and support individuals who have already recognized an environmental or humanitarian need in their local community. By erecting a state-of-the-art, drip-system greenhouse with adjoining chicken egg pens, Global Roots gives neglected children a chance to commune with nature as they grow their own vegetables and chicken eggs in after-school gardens.

Valley View School District Edible School Gardens

Among the many benefits of school gardening, the ultimate goal of the Valley View School District is to utilize the garden to cultivate healthier eating habits in students. Studies show that children who are involved in edible school gardens have increased their daily vegetable and fruit consumption by 2.5 servings per day (American Dietetic Association, 2007). Furthermore, growing and harvesting their own food increases children’s willingness to try new fruits and vegetables and improves their knowledge and attitudes toward these foods.

FFR Co-op Kids' Educational Garden

We are a new project, just getting started, that was seeded by a grassroots fellowship community project grant and in collaboration with our local parks district. Our goal is to inspire our community's children to eat better, preserve farm land, and get involved with their community.

Foodweb Education
