Imagine that 52% of the children we met, had their first
kitchen experience with our relation –
10 years old!
Believe in coincidences What started as a desire for good energy on the farm, has now become a golden egg with commitment NB: And we are talking a non-profit idea
School gardens in a new way
Began on one farm (1150 kids have a garden) in ”Fredensborg” Now active in 4 municipalities and starting up in additional 4. National deployment vision & WE DID NOT START IT AS A CSR IDEA! Just because it was a great feeling
What´s special about that? 1/3 nature focus .. photo synthesis etc. 1/3 garden .. growing & harvesting 1/3 cooking .. meals the kids will see and taste again
8 farm days a year & essential that the children on the farms experience comfortability and incredibility
Got started by coincidence, happy kids learning
Saw the potential hmm, here is something & I want to make changes
Made it grow we like to see things develop / good people came running
Partnership with municipality they were just incredible brave
Researched the quality evidence by DPU, Professor Karen Wistoft

Kinder garden local Flower project in first grade
Garden to stomach in 3. & 4. grade School kitchen and growing vedges locally in 6. grade
Growing fruit on schools in 8 grade
