The goal of the creative education program “Growing with Your Food” is to raise the awareness of growing food among children, families and educational institutions.
Anyone interested, can participate in the activities of an active and open network of community gardens. If you want to know more about urban gardening, you can learn about soil, composting, traditional Estonian varieties, plant protection and food preservation when taking part in our public lectures. In 2024, we will also have a big harvest party.
We publish several study materials as part of our creative education programme. Gardening videos and lesson guides help teachers to share information about food plants in school and also encourage hesitant green thumbs to start gardening.
We also show how and which food plants are grown by other European educational institutions. Schools and kindergartens from all over Europe can take part in the international photo contest organized in cooperation with the EcoSchool Programme in Estonia.
There will be more exciting ventures – just be open and brave enough to become a gardener!
