Today was planting day at Warsaw Schools Food and Nutrition Services. We started 2 varieties of tomatoes in their Grow Anu Growpod. In 40 days we'll add basil to the garden. Once the tomatoes and basil have matured, the school cafeteria will use them as toppings for pizza that will be served to their students.

If you'd like to learn more about growing fresh produce for your school classroom or cafeteria, message me. I'd love to help!

The staff at Warsaw Schools Food and Nutrition Services have been wonderful to work with! I've enjoyed helping them turn over a new leaf and get the most out their new Anu Growpod from Grow Anu.

🌱🥬 FROM TOWER TO TABLE! 🥬🌱

We’ve got a little GREEN THUMB SUCCESS happening at WCHS! 💚

Our WCHS Cafe tower garden has officially produced its FIRST LETTUCE HARVEST! 🎉🌱 Students got to watch their lettuce grow from tiny seedlings into fresh, crisp greens—and now it’s time to enjoy the fruits (or should we say LEAVES 😉) of their labor! A big thanks to Steve and all of his guidance. Keep It Watered has been a wonderful addition to our growing team.

From growing 🌱 to harvesting 🥬 to tasting 😋, this is a delicious way to help students see where their food comes from and get excited about trying fresh, healthy foods.

Who knew learning could be this CRISP?! 🥬😄

Here’s to many more harvests from our tower garden! 🌱💚

The best place to put a hydroponic system is where your students can easily interact with it. I’ve seen Tower Gardens in school offices, hallways, and cafeterias. Even though all these places are good, I feel the best place is in the classroom and here's why.

Where's the best location for a hydroponic gardening System in your school? Where your students can interact with it.
