Kids love playing in dirt, and metro Atlanta nonprofit foodwellalliance knows how to combine this youthful joy with a STEAM curriculum to teach students how they can play a role in building healthier communities through the natural food cycle. Food Well Alliance is a collaborative network of local leaders working together to build thriving community gardens and urban farms across metro Atlanta.
In our latest Eat.Cook.Grow video, we talk with Chris Lemons, Director of Programs & Outreach at Food Well Alliance about their Compost Connectors program, which teaches students about urban agriculture through healthy soil.
Hear more from Chris about how programs like composting help build greater access to healthy food for families.
