Undecided

At this point, we aren't sure what type of program to embrace.

UT Elementary School Wellness Program

The UT elementary school is developing a new course in Health and Wellness studies for students in pre-K through 5th grades. The curriculum will include four components: Social and Emotional Learning, Nutrition, and Gardening and Cooking. A new cafeteria and teaching kitchen is being built. Garden plots for each classroom have been established. A new teacher will be hired in the next few weeks to develop the curriculum and start teaching it in August 2012.

Wesminster CCS - Watch Our Garden Grow!

I am the Executive Chef of the Westminster Community Charter School in Buffalo, New York.  It is a very low-income area and we have an 88% Free & Reduced lunch rate.  We have three chefs on staff, as well as 5 part-time employees.  We prepare fresh, from-scratch meals for about 500 children every day.  I took over the kitchen in 2010 and changed the lunchroom from a processed foods only kitchen to one that only prepares homemade and fresh foods.  We make our peanut butter and strawberry preserves, pizzas, granola, as well as every dish on the school lunch menu.

Sage Design Technology Urban Garden

Sage International School's Design Technology summer school class is partnering with Mary Ann Newcomber, local 'Dirt Diva' in developing a urban garden on the 2nd floor deck of our school. Under Mary Ann's guidance, students will design and build all the necessary containers. They will also plant and fill those containers with organic edibles. The students will plant and connect Espalier fruit trees as a part of the planting design. Harvest of those fruit trees to be in the Fall when school resumes.
