The Rome Sustainable Food Project provides the community of the American Academy in Rome with a collaborative dining program that nourishes scholarship and conviviality. Guided by the indomitable spirit of the Roman table, it is our aim to construct a replicable model for sustainable dining in an institution. In 2006, Alice Waters envisioned the Rome Sustainable Food Project as an eco-gastronomic endeavor that would be a logical extension of the Academy’s values.

Green Bronx Machine was born of the belief that we are all AMER-I-CANS! Together, we can grow, re-use resource and recycle our way into new and healthy ways of living; complete with self sustaining local economic engines. Inclusively and collectively, each and every member of our society offers a unique perspective with unlimited potential. Together, we can move those who are "apart from" society to become "part of" the driving force behind new solutions benefiting all of us.

We started our Edible Garden last year at our school and it's become very popular, we have plans on adding more gardens the May!!!
