WHO ARE WE
Farm My School is a not-for-profit organisation which collaborates with schools to transform their underutilised grounds into regenerative farms that nourish, educate and connect communities. We are driven to promote healthy eating, ecological stewardship and connect communities.

Farm My School's Nourish workshop series has been designed to help families unlock affordable ways to grow and cook simple, nourishing food. Run by renowned chefs, food makers, authors and our own Farm My School team, the workshops are designed to encourage simple and practical ways to think about food growing, health and wellbeing.

WHAT ELSE DO WE DO
We are regenerative farmers, growing fresh, seasonal produce which are available to purchase via our weekly or subscription veggie boxes. We also offer free educational resources, an education program for incursions and excursions. incubator traineeships and team building experiences.

This is more than a farm – this is a food hub built for community, connection, education and sustainability!
