Normally our garden grows slowly day by day, one leaf at a time. But today it changed a LOT, and FAST! Look at what was accomplished so far during our Garden Reboot! Abundant thanks to the volunteers who were eager to get their hands dirty 🫶

We’re halfway to funding our garden project through the Good Food Campaign, and still need your help. Every gift plants a seed that helps us grow joy and connection. Link in bio. 🌿

Had a blast with the financial team at our Longevity Cooking Class! 🥢 They rolled up our sleeves and learned to make fresh summer rolls, all while embracing a whole-food, plant-forward approach to eating. It was a hands-on experience that not only brought everyone closer together as a team but also helped explore the power of nourishing our bodies with vibrant, plant-based ingredients.

Here’s to good food, great company, and a healthier future! 🌱

Microgreens are a healthy way to add nutrients to your diet. They contain many vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients.

For example, radish microgreens have double the amount of calcium and are higher in omega 3s than radishes. We are excited to use our radish microgreens as a health boosting garnish! 🌱💪🏼

Sweet potato season is nearly here!

We like to cure our sweet potatoes for 2 weeks after harvest in order for the sweetness to develop. The curing process also helps to heal wounds from the harvest process.

Who’s this handsome bunch of people? Why, our very own volunteers, of course! Ask any one of them why they volunteer at EEE, and they’re sure to say they feel the impact they bring to our mission.

We love volunteer appreciation days, and getting to spoil this special crew. Yesterday we got crafty with kitchen towels, snacked a lot, and shared some market goodies.

If you’re interested in volunteering at Edible Ed, you’re one step away from a rewarding experience. Sign up and join us for an orientation—we can’t wait to meet you! https://www.edibleed.org/volunteer
