Public Meeting: Food for a Future: Organic Orchards and Vegetable Gardens in schools

DavidHodges — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 03:12:26 +0000

Why: To provide healthy local organic food for children and an opportunity for children to learn how to grow their own food

What: I aim to emulate Ecomatters' successful organic garden pilot program that has helped several Waitakere City schools develop and maintain gardens and orchards by running a similar scheme in Mt. Albert and surrounding suburbs. Waterview school and Owairaka school have already expressed interest in being involved.
All going well, I will then look to expand the scheme to other parts of Auckland.
