Seed to Supper

The challenge of eradicating hunger is a complex issue. One approach is accessible in every community: gardening. Seed to Supper is a two-semester course sequence that teaches students how to collaborate with community partners to prepare residents across the state to grow a portion of their own food on a limited budget. Students prepare facilitators to educate others about the skills of gardening and, equally as important, the nuances of other kinds of growth it can foster. Partnering with Cooperative Extension educators, local food banks and other agencies, students lead facilitator preparation in a selected region in New York state. The students also learn about food security issues through summer internships that are offered at food banks throughout the state
