Seed to Plate 
The Big Picture: GrowNYC’s Seed to Plate curriculum connects students with the journey of local food, underscoring its importance for our bodies, the environment, and our communities.
A huge thank you to the Amazin’ Mets Foundation for their support of Seed to Plate!
Why It Matters: Seed to Plate introduces New York City 5th and 6th graders to the food system in an interactive way, showing them where food comes from and how our choices impact the planet. By learning the story of local food, students gain a foundation for environmental responsibility and sustainability.
Program Highlights:
Greenmarket Tours and Tastings: Students explore and sample food at local GrowNYC Greenmarkets.
Farm Visits: Excursions to local farms, including the Queens County Farm Museum and GrowNYC’s Teaching Garden on Governors Island, deepen their connection to nature.
Guest Speakers: Classroom visits from chefs and local farmers bring real-world insights into food and farming.
Hands-On Cooking: Students prepare healthy dishes with diverse, New York-grown ingredients.
Thank you to everyone involved in making Seed to Plate a transformative experience for our students!
