WHO ARE WE
Farm My School is a not-for-profit organisation which collaborates with schools to transform their underutilised grounds into regenerative farms that nourish, educate and connect communities. We are driven to promote healthy eating, ecological stewardship and connect communities.

The Nourish workshops are facilitated by renowned chefs, food makers, authors and our own Farm My School team and they are designed to encourage simple and practical ways to think about food growing, health and wellbeing.


WHAT ELSE DO WE DO
Everyone will work with Indigenous plants, as well as regeneratively grown, seasonal produce from Farm My School, which are available to purchase via our weekly or subscription veggie boxes [https://www.farmmyschool.com/products/veggie-box].

This is more than a farm – this is a food hub built for community, connection, education and sustainability!
