Field to Table Schools (FoodShare Toronto)

FoodShare Toronto’s Field to Table Schools (FTTS) program is restoring good food education in schools with hands-on activities, workshops and growing projects. Students from JK to Grade 12 learn about composting, innovative food gardens, nutrition, cooking, local and global food systems and more. The FTTS program reconnects students with food and where it comes from; teaching that good healthy food not only tastes good, but is fun too!

Palos Verdes School Gardens

Palos Verdes School Gardens is a non-profit organization that seeks to make our schools models of sustainability on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.

We want our kids to learn about conservation, smart energy use, how to grow food organically and responsibly and to care for their environment on the school campus. We want our kids to grow up knowing that their actions and decisions have an impact on the world around them.

IAA School Garden

 We are just beginning our school garden here at Interamerican Academy in Guayaquil! So far, we have Pre-K, 2nd grade, and 7th grade involved in the planting of seeds. Our school cafeteria saves their fruit and veggie scraps and we have three compost bins going to create soil.

The Khabele School

Every elementary student attends gardening class once per week, which are led by our on-staff Gardening Teacher, Scott Dubois. Our gardening classes focus on cultivating ecoliteracy, good nutrition, mindfulness, and persistence. These classes maintain our garden classroom and receive hands-on lessons with sustainability, nutrition, botany, weather, and ecology. The majority of the garden space is allocated to annual vegetables and cut flowers, which are either eaten during class or sold by students at a makeshift farm-stand to raise money for the garden.

Salomon Farm/ Farmin' Fun Day Camp

   The Farmin’ Fun Day Camp provides summer fun for boys and girls ages 4 and older. Activities include environmental exploration, arts and crafts, farming and gardening, animal care, games and much more. The garden will be abundant with vegetables to harvest and sell, the pygmy goats will be caring for new babies in the Bat Barn and you’ll meet other animal residents… donkeys, sheep, goats and chickens! Children of all ages care for the animals each day, work in the gardens, learn about and tend the compost piles, go fishing, hiking, and explore the creek.
