Abstract
The author describes working with Alice Waters on food advocacy and education. The Edible Schoolyard Project, a nonprofit organization started by Waters (and still active in 2024), developed and supports the Edible Schoolyard, a 1.5-acre (1/2 hectare) organic garden and kitchen classroom at a public middle school in Berkeley, California, where students learn to plant, harvest, and prepare fresh produce as part of their academic day. Unlike any programme of its time, the Edible Schoolyard got the whole country talking about food education, and alerted many including the author to the value of using cooking as a vehicle for learning. This led to her Charlie Cart project.
