Bright Futures Academy Charter School
Our garden is presently growing an extensive array of vegetables and fruit and has been sustainable since 2010. We are teaching our students how to grow healthy food and how to cook healthy food so that they can lead a healthy lifestyle with an emphasis on disease prevention,resulting from our fast food culture. Lessons on awareness to the importance of biodiversity in our food supply and the sustainability of our soil and water supplies is another way we hope to educate our kids. We believe that they will be prepared for the challenge of feeding the world and closer to home, feeding themselves.
We were recipients of a Whole Kids Foundation grant in 2011. Their support as well as the support of Whole Foods Market has been invaluable to us.
