This is a chance for kids to be rewarded for playing with their food. They will be guided through our produce department by our Healthy Eating Specialist, Kristina Jackson, as they select and learn about vegetables for their edible garden. They will then learn how to prepare ‘edible soil’ and “plant” their veggies within the soil. Once their farming is complete, they will get to enjoy the ‘veggies’ of their labor.

Space is limited. Email Kristina.jackson1@wholefoods.com to sign up.
