Our mission is to cultivate healthy youth through growing gardens in diverse, low-income communities.

Marquez Charter School Edible Garden

The Edible Garden Program at Marquez Charter strives to show children where their food comes from and encourages them to eat more healthy food. 

We have a Seed to Table approach where children plant, grow and then eat what they grow. Students taste from the garden whether it be chives, tomatoes, mint, arugula, lettuce or strawberry guavas, as well as cook such recipes such as salsa, pesto, or succotash.  

Pittsburg Unified School District

Pittsburg USD has created a Farm to school environment where we are utilizing Farm to school for our enhanced Nutrition program.  In addition, through the USDA Farm to School program grant, we will source and procure fresh, local produce to serve in our nutrition program.  This will aid in our community support and allow for students to learn how the Food system works. 

Soil America

Soil America is a non profit based out of The Redland in Homestead, Florida.

We serve and offer our resources to Greater Miami & the Florida Keys. (Miami-Dade / Broward + Monroe County)

We stand for clear communication between growers and the public.

Raising awareness in communities about clean food is important, not just for our health, but also for the agricultural integrity our soil deserves.

Jose Ortega Elementary School Green Paws Program

 Our Green Paws Ecoliteracy program is funded by the Jose Ortega PTA. Each week our Garden Consulant works with students and teachers in the garden areas of our school. 

Common Threads Farm and School Garden Collective

 At Common Threads Farm, we are on a mission to connect children and youth with healthy food through seed-to-table educational experiences. We currently reach over 3000 youth annually through our school-based gardening and cooking programs, our partnerships with nonprofits serving low-income youth, and our open-enrollment Farm Camp and Camp Pizza programs. In each of these programs, children are engaged in planting, tending, harvesting, cooking, eating, and - in some instances - selling produce at EBT (food stamp) accessible farm stands.

City Blossoms

City Blossoms is a non-profit organization working out of the Washington D.C. area dedicated to kid-driven, community engaging, creative green spaces. City Blossoms began nine years ago as a volunteer project and has since evolved into a year-round program that includes consulting, curriculum development (with consideration for learning standards), and regular on-site workshops. To date, City Blossoms has worked with over 3000 children and youth in various gardening projects.

Sustainable Molokai

 Sust`āinable Molokai is a local, grassroots group formed to inspire youth and all Molokai residents to work toward a more sustainable future for our island.

As a community-led and driven process, Sust`āinable Molokai adopts a broad and inclusive approach. We draw upon the strengths inherent in our island´s close-knit community and seek to cultivate symbiotic and diverse partnerships for projects designed to become self-supporting.

MA‘O Organic Farms

Our community of Wai‘anae is located on the west side of the island of O‘ahu and consists of six major ahupua‘a (ancient land divisions). In ancient times, Wai‘anae was a self-sufficient region that produced adequate amounts of food for its people while managing its land and water resources sustainably.
