About the Program: 

RFS puts children in touch with their food from seed to plate. The Recipe Gardens provide the cornerstone of the interdisciplinary nutritional learning activities featured in Seed-to-Plate Nutrition Education. RFS gardening instructors deliver monthly classes to the entire student body that introduce students to the complete food cycle and work with teachers to help weave food gardening into curriculum. With this grant RFS will be able to continue providing programs at the four campuses.
