Garden to Table 15th Anniversary Celebrations

Since 2009, Garden to Table has been enabling New Zealand tamariki and rangatahi to grow, harvest, prepare and share healthy kai through their schools programme. What began with 3 schools has grown to over 300, stretching across the country from Northland to Rakiura. To celebrate the 15th anniversary of the programme in Aotearoa, Dr Davies welcomed members of the Garden to Table Trust, its supporters and some partnering schools to Government House Auckland yesterday evening. Dr Davies reflected on Garden to Table's positive impact on our young people, noting what Dame Cindy experienced seeing the programme in action at Papatoetoe West School in 2022, and when he welcomed students to Government House for a pollinator pathway lesson last year.
