Programs
School gardens and nutrition education: This year we’ll reach over 750 middle and high school students at seven schools: Aptos Middle School, International Studies Academy, June Jordan School for Equity, Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School, SF Community School, Ida B. Wells Continuation High School, and Log Cabin Ranch (part of San Francisco’s juvenile justice program).
Read more about each of our sites.
Farmers in Residence program: The Farmers in Residence program involves school parents in the school garden and supports them to grow their own food. Each family in the program tends a garden plot and receives materials, training, and a modest stipend.
Summer Sprouts Program: Since 2006, Urban Sprouts has partnered with Garden for the Environment to provide an intensive summer gardening and leadership program for youth.
Read more about our program accomplishments from the past year.
The school garden teaches youth and their families how to plant, tend, harvest, and prepare fresh produce through hands-on experience.
Teachers note that the garden is an environment where students and adults create trusting relationships.
