ELP’S FOOD FOREST PROGRAMME
Get Your Primary School Involved!
ELP has a 3-Step Process.
• Engagement
• Education
• Empowerment
ELP provides resources to primary schools to help them teach their students about Food Security.
Our exciting plans for 2024 are to extend the schools programme to 35 new schools throughout Ireland!
In this Systems Thinking designed programme, 5 topics are covered with a lesson plan for each topic provided to teachers via password protected access from ELP’s website. All lessons centre around an easily managed 2m x 2m Food Forest planted in the school garden with the help of ELP’s Schools’ Coordinator.
A Food Forest is a mini ecosystem providing students with a simple roadmap for developing interconnected ecosystems. This mimics a healthy world where everything is connected and those connections are understood and respected.
