Garden Chefs Field Trip

At Waiahole Nursery we grow a variety of produce to sell and serve in our bistro. During this field trip students will participate in this cycle of growing, preparing, and eating fresh local food. Students will learn about healthy food choices, harvesting and food safety, and meal preparation using ingredients from our nursery and aquaponics system. In addition to touring the aquaponics systems, they will learn to identify common seeds, go over the MyPlate food groups, and practice proper knife safety and food handling. By the end of the day your class will have prepared at least three recipes to try during lunch! ​
