Healthy Growing Adds Nearly 20 New Schools Across California
As our Healthy Planet community grows, we proudly continue to bring together families, teachers, small business owners, cooks, farmers, artists, and nonprofit leaders who all have a unique journey, but similar passion, through food.
Since beginning with one school in the Bay Area in 2012 our mission has always been to inspire a new generation of conscious eaters. We continue working towards that mission every year and we’re proud to welcome 19 new schools from San Diego, San Jose, and San Lorenzo to our Healthy Growing family! We’ve spent the spring planning each school’s garden program, and will spend the summer and fall building their programs and raising the necessary funds to support each amazing new school.
We’re now working with over 18,000 children and families in nearly 40 schools, across more than 10 cities. We couldn’t have made it happen without each and every one of you, and we can not thank you, as donors and School Champions, enough.
Thanks for continuing to support healthy eating, school gardens, and the fight against childhood obesity.
