Students participating in King’s Seeds for Learning: Beyond the Farm program, sponsored by Foundations, worked with a local chef to make healthy dishes using fresh produce grown on the school’s campus. More than 150 community residents, including elected officials and nonprofit leaders, were served that day. Seeds for Learning is a year-round farm and entrepreneurship program.
