24 school gardens in 24 cities in 24 hours!

This Earth month (April), Sprouts Farmers Market is launching a campaign to build 24 school gardens, in 24 cities in 24 hours. The Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation is on a mission to help kids grow healthy with hands-on school gardening and cooking programs that bring nutrition education to life.

The community is invited to nominate a neighborhood school to receive a new learning garden to help kids in the community grow healthy. Nominations are now open and will be open until April 26. The application form can be accessed here –  https://www.sprouts.com/earth-month/

Founded in 2015, The Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation strives to inspire, educate, and empower individuals, especially children, to live healthier lives – primarily through school garden education.

Since its inception in 2015, the Foundation has granted $15 million to more than 300 nonprofit partners which have brought hands-on, garden-based learning to 1.5 million children and provided nutrition education programs to an estimated 900,000 K-12 students.
