Edible Schoolyard NYC’s mission is to support edible education for every child in New York City by partnering with public schools to cultivate healthy students and communities through hands-on cooking and gardening education, transforming children’s relationship with food. Edible Schoolyard believes in a future where all children are empowered to make healthy food choices for themselves, their communities, and their environments.
Edible Schoolyard wrapped up a successful school year, reaching nearly 4,000 students in 16 public schools throughout the city. Their educators taught over 2,000 lessons and hosted over 500 extracurricular activities, including food distributions and family cooking nights. Some of the student's favorite harvests included garlic scapes, carrots, and mint.
Thanks Rainbow Sandals Foundation for the support!
