Seed to Fibre

Seed to Fibre is a program that was developed as an activity for Farm to School Month. The Seed to Fibre program grew from an activity into a service project to be used by various non- profits to introduce activities to schools and out of school programs about Farm to School Services and how to implement Farm to School Services into curriculums, classrooms, and creative use spaces.

Lincoln Middle School Seed to Table Program

Small groups of students are pulled out of the Outdoor Development Class and the Environmental Science class to spend time with the Seed to Table teacher, Lorri Garrett. They plant, grow, harvest, cook and eat organic produce. Being on the estuary, Lincoln Middle School applied to be an Ocean's Guardian School and has been growing Marsh Gumplant to help restore the waterfront. The students also learn how to make seed balls with native wildflower seeds.

Each student at Edison Elementary visits the garden once a month with their class. Lessons are taught by Lorri Garrett and are grade appropriate covering science, nutrition, gardening, and cooking. Simple recipes like salsa, pesto, salad and cheesy chard are made in the garden with the students. 

Real Food SEED (Student Engagement Every Day)

The Real Food SEED (Student Engagement Every Day) project is designed to provide students with authentic learning opportunities connecting them to real food through sensory experiences.  Our programs in the school cafeteria, classroom, school garden, and local farming community engage students in learning about growing food, eating seasonally and mindfully, and preparing and enjoying meals together.  Our goal is to provide all students with the knowledge and skills to make conscious, educated food choices that will nourish them for a lifetime of health.
