Convivia La Habana-Germinal

Slow Food Cuba joins projects linked to the production and consumption of food related to human health and environment preservation. These groups are linked to several Cuban institutions that lead the processes of sustainable feeding. They linked different fields such as education, health, production, storage and consumption of food, agroecology, permaculture, renewable energy and food culture. We have worked in an integrated way. We also have collaborated with the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Turin and other university projects.

Warren County High School Garden

Our school garden program is centered around our students learning sustainable agriculture, raising young people’s interest in farming and growing real food, and also learning to prepare this real food in healthy ways. To this end, we are integrating gardens into class curriculum, starting a small School Supported Agriculture with a group of 20 interested 9th graders, as well as continuing our afterschool Garden Club. We use season extension techniques, organic planting methods, and use food waste from a local restaurant to contribute to our composting system.
