Jessica Eves is a passionate garden and cooking educator who is dedicated to fostering a love for nature, nutrition, and sustainability. She was a classroom teacher for 18 years before she established a school garden in 2019. She has since transformed it into an innovative garden and cooking classroom where students engage in hands-on learning experiences that integrate garden and cooking lessons. Jessica helps students develop strong relationships and vital social skills while exploring topics like composting, crop rotation, and seasonality.
Jessica inspires others to embrace the transformative power of garden and cooking education.
