Seeds
of Solidarity is promoting local food self reliance
in our low-income region while reducing reliance on fossil
fuels by:
 |
- implementing
gardens and season extending greenhouses at six schools
- linking
local farmers and chefs with schools in order to “put
a face on food”
- supporting
schools in buying local farm products for school lunches
- disseminating
a local food, local energy curriculum tool kit to
teachers
- training
teens and college students in food system activism
- bringing
the SOL Patrol to schools, farmers markets,
festivals and conferences
- creating
a video of the whole thing.
