Creekside Elementary

The Garden to the Table Program at Creekside Elementary is a collaborative project between Creekside Elementary, The Growe Foundation, and businesses and volunteers from the greater Boulder community. The purpose of the project is five-fold: to provide fresh, healthy, delicious meals in the school’s lunchroom; to use the newly created, organic school garden as a hands-on, experiential means of illustrating classroom lessons; to use the garden to provide food for the lunchroom whenever possible and to integrate food, its origins and its preparation into the curriculum; to continue to use our Zero-Waste recycling/composting program with Eco-Cycle to teach our children about sustainability; and to model and promote good health to our students.
