Parkside Agricultural and Culinary Program Grows and Grows!<\/h2>\n

This summer the produce harvested from the Parkside Agricultural Program was delivered to amazing community partners: MOR Cafe and Bakery<\/a>, Goodkind Restaurant<\/a> and Upstart Kitchen<\/a>.\u00a0 MOR featured much of the school produce on their specialty weekly savory menu.\u00a0 Goodkind used the produce in the restaurant for their delicious dishes and cocktails and ALSO for meals for the Milwaukee Women’s Center.\u00a0 Upstart Kitchen used the produce for community support meals weekly through the Housing Authority and more!\u00a0 During the challenging times of COVID, it was Parkside’s pleasure to get the fresh produce into the hands of those that could really use it for extremely positive causes.\u00a0 We look forward to working with these partners in the future.<\/p>\n

A brand new partner just in time for the new school year is Milwaukee High School of the Arts<\/a>.\u00a0 The school is using Parkside fresh picked produce for their Artful Cafe program.\u00a0 This program is run by the special education community – bringing fresh made meals to the staff at the school.\u00a0 Last week they featured a garden salad and this coming week they will offer spaghetti with homemade marinara.\u00a0 Yum!\u00a0 Both recipes included Parkside veggies: tomatoes, greens, lettuce, herbs, peppers and cucumbers.<\/p>\n

In addition, the 8 raised beds located onsite at the school were repaired and are looking magnificent.\u00a0 The hoop houses had several enhancements including more permanent garden boxes and trellis systems for tomatoes, cucumbers, melon and zucchini.\u00a0 U-shaped beds have also been installed for a convenient outdoor classroom setting for students.\u00a0 All of the enhancements maximize the space and also streamline the operation for the greatest growing potential.<\/p>\n

Coming soon for families during the 2021-22 school year: more virtual culinary classes, meal kits and more!<\/p>\n
