Edible Schoolyard NYC's mission is to support edible education for every child in New York City.

The school garden at PS/MS 007 Samuel Stern School in #Harlem was a terrific spot for a chat between @NYCUrbanAg Executive Director Qiana Mickie & @ESNYC Executive Director Shanon Morris to discuss a new vision for #FarmtoSchool in NYC! #SchoolGardens #NYCUrbanAg #Farmers #AgEd

Food and nutrition education isn't just about teaching kids what to eat – it's also about fostering a lifelong love and appreciation for healthy, delicious food. Let's inspire our children to embrace healthy eating and live their best lives. #FoodEd4All

[EdibleSchoolyardNYC @ESYNYC]

Edible Schoolyard NYC knows that when we prioritize food and nutrition education in schools, we're setting kids up for success today and in the future. Now is the time to invest in food education for all NYC students to help our kids flourish in every way! #FoodEd4All

Legislators respond to the people they represent. ☎️ Call the Governor and your State reps to tell them you support Healthy School Meals for All with these instructions and scripts https://t.co/OpKU6azQQO TODAY! #Meals4AllNY

[EdibleSchoolyardNYC @ESYNYC]

Healthy School Meals for All is a cost-effective way to improve students’ physical and mental health while boosting academic achievement. @GovKathyHochul, we need you to fully fund this critical policy for all NY kids! #Meals4AllNY

[EquityAdvocates @EquityAdvocates]

Healthy School Meals for All directly addresses food insecurity & helps struggling families make ends meet. With prices for essentials rising, the math is simple. Feeding all students = a more affordable NY. We need @GovKathyHochul to fully fund this critical policy! #Meals4AllNY

[TeensforFoodJustice @tffjinitiative]

Healthy School Meals for All is a proven low cost, high impact policy that will reduce food insecurity & bolster equity in New York. It’s time for @GovKathyHochul to do what’s right for students and families by fully funding HSMFA. #Meals4AllNY

[Jessica González-Rojas (votejgr.bsky.social) @votejgr]

NEW: Read my op-ed with @SenatorHinchey in @lohud! In it, we call on #Meals4AllNY to be funded in our enacted budget. We can make NY more affordable and livable AND nourish our students 🍎https://t.co/QTwlNUVhrL

[Swipe Out Hunger @SwipeHunger]

Today, dozens of orgs across NY such as @HungerFreeUSA @FoodBank4NYC @CityHarvest @FoodAdvocatesNY @FeedingNys @UJAfedNY @foodequitynow @cccnewyork & more are asking leaders like @tobystavisky to fight for NY students & support $1mil in campus hunger funding in the final budget!

NOW is the time for @NYCCouncil to invest in our youth as the next generation of farmers. Join #NYCFoodPolicyAlliance in asking for an increase in urban agriculture sites for @NYCYouth's SYEP. @NYCSpeakerAdams @CMShekarK #foodjustice #youthempowerment

[EdibleSchoolyardNYC @ESYNYC]

We’re thrilled that @NYSA_Majority & @NYSenate included Healthy School Meals for All in their budget bills. Now we’re calling on @GovKathyHochul to fully fund free school meals in the final State budget! #Meals4AllNY https://t.co/xQYRGaJWXr

[EquityAdvocates @EquityAdvocates]

Students learn better when they eat better. A robust, well-trained team of School Food Managers makes that happen at schools across the City. Will @NYCCouncil support the managers NYC needs? We hope so! #FoodEd4All @NYCSpeakerAdams @RitaJosephNYC https://t.co/plVBweec90

Flexible funding allows schools to tailor nutrition programs to their students’ needs. Whether they invest in gardens or pay teachers fairly for time providing programming, flexible funding makes food and nutrition education possible! #FoodEd4All https://t.co/WynxLk9cOh

NOW is the time to ensure all New Yorkers have quality food education and healthy food access. Join the #FoodEdCoalition in asking @NYCCouncil to support #FoodEd4All! @NYCSpeakerAdams @RitaJosephNYC @CMShaunAbreu https://t.co/WynxLk9cOh

Congrats to our friend @ragamickie and the @NYCUrbanAg! We look forward to working with you and other partners towards stronger alignment, community, and innovation to better sustain and serve our city.

[EdibleSchoolyardNYC @ESYNYC]

The act would also add funding for farm to school and scratch cooking initiatives at schools, helping to create healthy school environments for students to learn and grow.

[EdibleSchoolyardNYC @ESYNYC]

We hope to see support for the Healthy Meals, Healthy Kids Act. This act would greatly expand access to free and healthy school meals. @RepEspaillat @RepJeffries @RitchieTorres @NydiaVelazquez
