Edible Schoolyard – up and running in several locations in the US Founded in 1995 by chef and activist Alice Waters to transform children’s relationship with food, the Edible Schoolyard project was created in partnership with the principal at a public middle school in Berkeley. Edible education, as the idea is now called, integrates organic gardening and cooking into the curriculum and encourages children to think how the building, its system and the surrounding gardens work together
