Pledge to make a difference, together.
Growing Chefs! has a vision for a future with healthier kids making healthier choices. Our program teaches children about growing and cooking healthy food by placing chef volunteers into elementary schools. Through our hands-on Growing Chefs! Classroom Gardening and Cooking Program, we teach kids about where their food comes from and the benefits of eating fresh, nutritious meals.
Growing Chefs! pairs teams of chef volunteers with elementary school classrooms to grow vegetables, do cooking lessons, and get kids excited about healthy eating. On the chefs’ first visit, they help students plant indoor windowsill gardens consisting of fast-growing vegetables. The chefs return to the classroom every two weeks for 3.5 months to help the students care for the garden and lead lessons on nutrition, gardening, and healthy food systems. At the end of the program, the chefs help the students harvest their vegetables and teach them to cook delicious meals with the food they’ve grown.
