Finally a food-based fundraiser that supports kids and families in making healthy choices! As a dietitian and a mom I know that getting kids involved in making food increases the likelihood of them to try new and healthy foods. Not to mention building a passion for cooking at a young age can support healthy eating in the future. I am so excited for Give Garden to get started!

I really value and appreciate the consciousness this company has for helping children and families learn about nutrition. When it comes to fundraising for our kids' sports team, the company eliminates the dichotomy that is all too often present with selling candy bars or cookie dough and instead they have found an outstanding way to develop a program that supports healthy habits for families with growing athletes.

As an educator, I think a program like Give Garden works for two big reasons. Research has shown that involving children in meal preparation helps foster family bonding and togetherness, and even reduces behavior problems; and eating a healthy diet with quality ingredients prepares students for learning and fuels the brain. The bonus is that Give Garden also gives back to schools!
