Grow Pittsburgh

Grow Pittsburgh's school garden program was born in 2006 as a pilot program in two Pittsburgh Public Schools.  Over the years we have seen the interest and demand for school garden programming grow signficantly.  We currently support fifteen school gardens in the region and look forward to continuing to work with more schools through a bi-annual application process.

Camp Kitchen & Harvest

Camp Kitchen & Harvest seeks to teach youth the value of gardening, cooking, and healthy eating to empower them to reach their goals.

Alaska Farm to School

The Farm to School (FTS) program is designed to offer expertise and support to all areas of the state to pursue farm to school activities and interests. The prevailing program goal is having product produced and/or harvested in Alaska available in the school food environment. We hope that through a variety of outreach efforts, we will increase the procurement and use of food grown in the state by public schools.

Springdale Park Elementary School

 Springdale Park Elementary School is part of Atlanta Public Schools. SPARK was built as a certified LEED Gold school with the unique feature of a roof-top garden. The building was designed by Perkins+Will and has won the Atlanta Urban Design Commission Award of Excellence, the AIA Georgia Design Award, and the USGBC Award for Excellence in Sustainability in 2010. It was recently highlighted by the United States Green Building Council through their "High Performance, Healthy Schools" program for both their physical resources and their programming. 

Blooming Heights Edible Schoolyard & Outdoor Classroom

Our Mission

The mission of Blooming Heights Edible Schoolyard is to support academic achievement and promote healthy nutrition for students in the Columbia Heights Public School District. As a district-wide organic school garden, Blooming Heights is a resource for all teachers and students to use as a living laboratory and outdoor classroom to enhance class lessons and curriculum. The garden is also open to community members as a space to learn about growing nutritious food and sustainable gardening.

About the Garden

City of Oakland Community Gardens Program

The City of Oakland's Community Gardens Program provides 16 community gardens and 17 youth programs citywide.  Our youth programs provide children ages 4-13 with the opportunity to learn where their food comes from, growing organic herbs and vegetables for cooking onsite at recreation centers, or at home with their families.  Please contact program coordinator Peter Collier at 510.238.2197 for more information, or send him an email at pcollier@oaklandnet.com.  You can also visit a City of Oakland recreation center to see how you can get involved

Edible School Garden Designs

As a cookbook author and kitchen garden designer, I see opportunities for schools to create beautiful gardens that go beyond growing basic food. I work with school gardeners who seek creative ways to build edible garden areas to invite the whole school community to spend time outdoors connecting to the food that is grown miraculously from a small seed.
