Food

Our food depends largely on vegetables and fruits – products we get from the soil. But the soil does more than that: many life processes that support plants and animals occur in it. Are we using it in a responsible way?

Through these lesson plans, your students will:
 

• Explain the relationships among plants, soil, and food.
• Understand that good farming and food marketing practices protect the Earth.
• Learn about the concept of food security and its relationship to climate change.
