Slow Food USA School Gardens

Slow Food USA’s National School Garden Program aims to reconnect youth with their food by teaching them how to grow, cook and enjoy real food. Through increased confidence, knowledge gain and skill building, we want to empower children to become active participants in their food choices. By becoming informed eaters, today’s children will help make a positive impact in the larger world of food and farming well into the future.

Menu for Change

Raise your Fork against climate change!
​We know that food is a cause of climate change. From field to fork, our food system contributes a fifth of greenhouse gas emissions. Food is a victim of climate change, too. Drought, desertification, floods, sea-level rise and ocean pollution put our food at risk across the world.
But we are believers in Slow Food, and we want to talk and educate about food as a solution —
 a delicious, deeply rooted and forward thinking solution  — to climate change.
