We use edible gardens to engage secondary school students about food security and climate change.

Love this from @Emma_Maris - 'this future is still possible. But it will only come to pass if we shed our shame, stop focusing on ourselves, join together and demand it'. Helping people feel empowered to tackle climate change is what we're all about.

My four-year-old niece: 'Why are your tomatoes green, but next-door's are red?' It can be hard to keep up with the neighbours, but growing your own tomatoes is pretty straightforward - no greenhouse required! #growyourownfood

We waste 260,000 tonnes of composite meals every year in UK homes, costing us £1.2 billion 🥗🍲🍝🍛

Our experts Helen and @R_Swannell talked to @max_lamanna about wasted food for the @BBCEarth series Regeneration: Food ➡️ https://t.co/HkVVT6uskH

'Gardening can improve our wellbeing, bring us joy... People of colour shouldn’t be shut out of the chance to share in these benefits, especially during a crisis that is affecting us worse than white people.' Inspiring indoor gardening ideas from @galdemzine

[gal-dem @galdemzine]

Gardening can do a world of wonder for your mental health, but with one in eight households in Britain having no access to shared or private outside space, @aimeevgc is enlightening us on gardening growing our own food indoors https://t.co/00XI6bJHok

Some interesting thoughts here from @ClimateReality on a 'middle path' of tackling climate change through our communities, inspired by the amazing #community responses to #COVID19

[Climate Reality @ClimateReality]

Spoiler alert: you can do a lot to help fight the climate crisis. https://t.co/F3c5raPhdU

Loved this from @gabyhinsliff in @guardian: 'Right across the country, we should insist that new housebuilding schemes leave room for families to have proper gardens and grow food communally; schools, too, need wild places for children to play...' https://t.co/WINLZkwkBh

This is so encouraging and inspiring - exactly why we love working with #KS3 students to explore the links between the #foodsystem and #climatechange.

"Systems thinking is too advanced for undergraduates" an economics professor once told me.

I just taught the basics of feedback loops to my 11 y.o. twins and then they drew this.

It's time to teach & use the tools we all need for the complex challenges we face now & ahead.
