Education and Training


We have made a one stop shop so that you can grow your own local, healthy and nutritious food. The food and wellbeing education resources focus on everything food; from planting your first seeds, to recipes and creating a food business.

The resources have been developed for teachers, students and gardeners who want to learn about growing and using healthy food.
