Description

The Edible Peace Patch Project's mission is to cultivate healthy minds and bodies through hands-on educational gardens producing successful individuals and thriving communities. The Edible Peace Patch Project is a community based non-profit organization, whose mission is to eliminate poverty as a factor in

Currently we operate seven schoolyard gardens in Pinellas County, Florida. These include; Campbell Park Elementary,
Fairmount Park Elementary, Lakewood Elementary, Maximo Elementary, Gulfport Elementary, Lealman Avenue Elementary and
Sanderlin IB World School.

with the Pinellas County School District, that our garden education is a viable way for kids to
