Alice Waters


Edible Schoolyard A Universal Idea


One of America’s most influential chefs, Alice Waters created a revolu- tion in 1971 when she introduced local, organic fare at her Berkeley, California, restaurant, Chez Panisse. Twenty- five years later, she and a small group of teachers and volunteers turned over long-abandoned soil at an urban middle


school in Berkeley and planted the Edible Schoolyard. The schoolyard has since grown into a universal idea of Edible Education that integrates academics with growing, cooking, and sharing wholesome, delicious food. With in- spiring images of the garden and kitchen and their young caretakers Edible Schoolyard is at once a visionary model for sustainable farming and childhood nutrition, and a call to action for schools across the country.
