14. Children need to get away from the pavement
&
Imagine that 52% of the children we met,
had their first
kitchen experience with our relation
–
10 years old!

15. 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

16. 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

20. 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

22. 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
Started again at location no. II far from home, hard work
Wrote manual hired the clever researcher
THINK, Act, network, finance
Boom!!!! Is here to come

25. Chain Brain operation
More to come:
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
And the funny stuff - this not unrealistic and expensive

27. Research……

30. THE GOAL

32. National roleout
Every child has the right to a vegetable garden and a small kitchen
magic + more

34. A dream is…when
Children explore, in extreme coherenge, the nature, feel safe and happy,
to the bone!!
..still dreaming about daily candy, and…
when kids are jumping into deep soily water, while eating a carrot a day,
inhalating juicing spirit througt light and sky in their daily life
And thereby feel connected
to something bigger than they could dream of
