It's a bird, it's a plane, it's the Superfood Showcase!

The Farm to School Advocacy Series

During the month of May, the Collective hosted "The Farm to School Advocacy Series", a two week unique and flexible virtual enrichment opportunity for students to engage in Farm to School Activities! After completing the series, participating students were eligible to earn one of the following certificates: Golden Guava, Silver Shallot, or the Bronze Beet.

Growing Local Connections

Is there anything better than fresh vegetables from the garden? Luckily for students at Wangenheim Middle School in San Diego Unified School District, a generous donation of tomato and pepper plants was recently made by Farmer Murph! Farmer Murph, a local farmer in the city who specializes in seedlings and grow kits, reached out regarding his interest in donating excess tomato and pepper seedlings to a school district. ​ We were able to connect them with San Diego Unified School District, where the seedlings were happily accepted and planted right away into the Wangenheim culinary garden! Thank you again, Farmer Murph, for your donation! We can’t wait to see all the amazing vegetables the seedlings will produce throughout the season!
