Interested in having Growing Chefs come to your classroom?

Over the summer we are working hard to deepen and develop our classroom program. Please return to this page at the end of August/early September to find out more and register your interest for the 2025/2026 school year!

A Flavour of Our Program

    • In 2025/2026, Growing Chefs’ Classroom Gardening and Cooking Program will be a series of hands-on lessons focusing on the power of food: how to grow, prepare, and share it—connecting students to themselves and each other.

    • A Growing Chefs facilitator will be paired with your class to deliver this hands-on experience, bursting with food literacy activities, flavours and teamwork.

    • Growing Chefs will come to your classroom with all of the materials, tools, and ingredients for the lessons. All you need to do is ensure there is some space on your windowsill for growing microgreens and ideally a projector to connect to (it’s not a problem if you don’t have one) and we'll bring the rest.

    • There is a program fee to deliver the program to your classroom that helps us cover the cost of equipment and food. But don't fret—no school is ever turned away for lack of funds! If you require a subsidy please let us know.

    • Please be aware that registering your interest for 2025/2026 does not guarantee that our program will come to your school, but will be dependent on our teams’ capacity.
