About the Program: 

The garden provides a unique Farm to Table model of learning. Students learn about healthy eating sample produce and learn healthy recipes. Currently there is no room for nutrition education within classrooms in Milwaukee Public Schools. This program fills that need by providing children with nutrition education and hands-on school garden experience. The program also specifically targets low-income schools ensuring that students receive nutrition education in combination with meal programs.
