What a great idea: Edible Schoolyards, where children help create gardens and take part in a kitchen classroom. “Students participate in all aspects of growing, harvesting, and preparing nutritious, seasonal produce”.
Perhaps this is part of the answer to instilling a love of healthy food in kids… get them involved in growing and making their own healthy school lunches.

Let’s keep the great ideas coming and try to put some of them in practice to help improve the quality of our childrens’ lives!
