Growing for Generations
With the power of hands-on education, we’ve been inspiring each generation to embrace sustainable choices and healthy eating habits, since 2005.
Cornucopia Project began with a small plot of land and one woman’s dream to connect kids to local healthy food. Now Cornucopia Project provides garden education to nine elementary schools, offers youth cooking classes to hundreds and operates an Educational Farm in Peterborough, NH that supplies produce to families, restaurants, food pantries, community suppers, and schools. What started as a community garden is today a thriving nonprofit that provides hands-on nutrition education to four-thousand NH residents annually.
