Rob Greenfield Instagram – Seeds for Schools!
I am elated to provide seeds to 1,200 schools across the US to help children grow food and connect more deeply with Earth and their communities.
The Grow Your Own Food Seed Pack has enough seeds to abundantly fill two 4×8’ raised beds with healing greens, hearty veggies, tasty herbs and a mix of flowers for our pollinator friends. The pack is perfect for starting a small garden at a school!
The Community Pack has enough seeds to abundantly fill thirty 4×8’ raised beds, with a variety of over 20 of the easiest to grow foods from seed. The pack is perfect for starting a large school garden or community initiative
What is Our Mission?
To help children, parents, teachers, school administrators and community members grow food at their schools!
We dream of this food being grown at schools by children and incorporating the harvest into their school lunch or by bringing it home to enjoy with their family. We dream of the seeds being distributed to children in the classroom to take home and grow, utilizing our educational guides.
We dream of community initiatives blossoming! Families growing their own food at home to pack for healthy school lunches… Backyard and front yard gardeners and small farmers to grow food to provide to school lunches…
How are We Supporting Beyond Seeds?
-We have a step-by-step video series and growing guide that shows exactly how to grow this food from planning the garden, to planting the seeds, to tending the garden, to harvesting the food!
-We will host a few live Q&A sessions where you can ask me any garden questions.
-We are providing grants of $250 to 5 schools to cover the costs to start a small garden.
Who’s Eligible?
Anyone who wants to and can grow food at their school or to benefit children at a school in their community!
