Green Thumbs
In Your School
Green Thumbs In Your School is a food and whole body wellness education program that couples nutrition/garden education with yoga. Our program teaches gardening and plant-based cooking to connect the entire process of soil-to-table to school-age students.
Black Girls With Green Thumbs offers inclusive educational programs to the communities in which we live. Through our school partnerships, we have historically provided hands-on nutrition education to children and youth who require developmental and behavioral support. We take pride in offering these inclusive educational experiences as we believe that challenges and disabilities do not disqualify any child or young adult from leading a life of enriching experiences. We nurture independence and self-confidence by teaching nutrition/gardening education and basic cooking/food preparation skills that help prepare youth for life!
This project is funded by fairlife and the Philadelphia Autism Project.
