Green and Growing Summit

Summit Empowers Gardening Education and Sustainability

At the Green and Growing Summit, an annual event centered around gardening in education, a team from Aramark made significant contributions. The summit's primary objective was to amplify participants' knowledge of garden-based learning, nature exploration, and sustainability education through workshops and networking opportunities.

During the event, valuable resources were shared, including the website cpsfarmtoschool.com, which served as a platform to promote student engagement events such as CPS Fresh and CPS Chef Council. Moreover, the team effectively utilized the summit to network and engage with teachers and schools, seeking their active participation.

Aramark demonstrated its commitment to sustainability by sponsoring the event and donating compostable trays and spork sets for the breakfast. Their contributions underscored the importance of fostering a greener and more sustainable future through practical initiatives.
