Why We Are Growing

Why does Nutrition Services encourage school gardens?

School gardens are an empowering way for kids to learn about food and make connections to the cafeteria staff who support their education through good nutrition.

Why Grow Our Own?

School gardens need support! Grow Our Own pulls together resources within SPPS and our community to help schools get the most out of their gardens.

How does Grow Our Own support sustainability?

Grow Our Own provides guidance for building a team of support in the school and community, so the planning, work, and benefits are shared!
