Middle School

Solvang School Elementary Viking Cafe!

We are a brand new lunch program that is reforming the old school re-heated foods into farm fresh organic fruits and vegetables.  Through donations from the Orfalea Foundation of Santa Barbara, Ca we have built a full service kitchen that is feeding 350-400 student each day.  We have a farm gleaning program through Santa Ynez Valley Fruit & Vegetable Rescue.  The organic local farms are gleaned daily, and truck loads of the fresh organic produce is brought to our kitchen and made in to delicious soups, salads, sauces and dressings for the students at Solvang's "Viking Cafe". 

Wakulla's Charter School of the Arts, Science and Technology

Currently our garden is small, with a variety of edibles and flowers. I would like to expand our program to feed our school and eventually, have an organic farmer's market run by the students. We have a wonderful master gardener volunteer, and community support.

Farms in Schools - Putting Real, working farms in schools

Tree Media Foundation's / Urban Roots call to action is to put farms in schools. Across the nation, schools cover large areas of land that are often covered in asphalt. This asphalt-covered land offers up a terrific opportunity to turn it into organic, food-producing land while also creating a valuable, outdoor classroom.

Sustainable Nantucket Farm to School Program

Sustainable Nantucket is a non-profit organization that is cultivating a healthy Nantucket by building a better local food system which in turn means a stronger economy for the island. We are actively expanding sustainable agriculture, on-island farm growth, encouraging entrepreneurial cottage industry, and helping to create new networks for our local agri-business community.

What's Growin' On

What's Growin' On? is an organic garden created from an overgrown, unused courtyard.   While originally used by the seventh grade life science classes to grow organic vegetables and offer a haven for pollinators with geometrically designed perennial beds, it has grown into a school wide resource.

Growing Up Organic

Growing Up Organic is a project of Canadian Organic Growers' Ottawa Chapter. We run a number of active programs aimed at increasing youth awareness of and access to local organic foods, while encouraging increased organic production for the local community. To date we have partnered with 23 schools across the Ottawa region in establishing organic school garden programs...the harvest grows more bountiful every year!
