How do the kitchen/garden programs in the schools relate to SLI?
Through SLI, BUSD will make stronger connections between the curriculum used in the kitchen and garden classrooms and the meals that are being served to students in the cafeteria. The majority of kitchen/garden programs in Berkeley are funded through the California Nutrition Network (CNN). These programs have been using, among other materials, a Harvest of the Month curriculum. As part of SLI, BUSD hopes to create stronger connections between Harvest of the Month and the core curriculum.
