EGC’s Living Campus Program collaborates with K-12 schools and community sites to design garden-centered outdoor educational settings, and then assist with installation, maintenance, and harvesting of produce grown within the gardens for donation. Our outdoor classrooms teach students about the connection between our food system and the environment, as well as about food insecurity and how community members of all ages can have a positive impact. Students develop competence and interest in agriculture, which they use to lead their own families and the broader community.
Food Explorers Program
The Food Explorers Program provides TK – 5th grade students with school day lessons in the garden. With curriculum focusing on food systems, food insecurity, sustainability and plant science, Food Explorers gets kids outside and thinking about where their food comes from, who provides food for our community, and how our gardens help the environment.
