Grub inspire positive personal and community change by bringing people together around food and agriculture. Grub partner with youth and people with low-incomes to create empowering individual & community food solutions. Grub offer tools & trainings to help build a just & sustainable food system.
Students will work with the schools initiative and the kitchen garden project. Through our GRuB in the schools initiative,disengaged and/or low-income students earn credits while learning about and contributing to their local food systems. We focus on the themes of Farming Self (personal development), Farming Land(sustainable land stewardship), & Farming Community (civic engagement & community service). The Kitchen Garden Project builds backyard and community gardens, host workshops, and provide support, training, and resources for new gardeners to find success. Our goal is for gardeners to build the skills and connections to organize good food projects in their own neighborhoods.
