Learning Zonexpress has created a food cycle poster designed to educate students about the connection between schools and farms, illustrating how food is grown, harvested, and recycled back into the agricultural system through composting. The poster, measuring 18” x 24” and priced at $9.95, serves as a visual aid for teaching the complete food cycle. It is suitable for use in classrooms or cafeterias and can enhance both educational lectures and demonstrations.

2. Teaching the Food Cycle to StudentsWhen teaching the food cycle to kids, it can sometimes be difficult to make the connection between “the school” and “the farm.”Learning ZoneXpress has developed a Food Cycle Poster that graphically demonstrates how the food is grown on the farm, harvested, and then transported to the school.

4. Teaching the Food Cycle to StudentsBy demonstrating the complete food cycle, students can connect with the cycle and see the balance required in nature. What’s more, it gives them an opportunity to see how they fit into that cycle both through the school, and by inference, in their own home.
