School gardens and farms can offer a solution. When children are involved in school garden and farming programs, it can improve food literacy, increase academic engagement, teach children practical agricultural skills, and support the dissemination of more sustainable and regenerative farming practices.
When recognized as platforms within national food, education, agriculture, youth, and resilience strategies, purpose-led school gardens and farms have the potential to strengthen students’ nutrition, learning, and future livelihoods, while delivering wider benefits for local food systems.
