Plant*Grow*Eat Bus Sponsorship

Help Kids Enjoy a Growing Adventure at the Fair!

The San Diego County Fair’s Plant*Grow*Eat program teaches children about agriculture and nutrition. The Don Diego Bus Program enables students from Title 1 elementary schools throughout the San Diego area to participate. For many children, this marks their first time to the Fair; for some, their first glimpse of the Pacific Ocean!

This year, students will be visiting The Farm at the Fairgrounds during the week of May 20-24
Students will partake in educational activities delving into various aspects of agriculture, encompassing plants and farm animals alike.
Each student will receive seeds and materials to nurture their own plant at home.
Students will receive a ticket to return to the Fair when it opens.

Join us in supporting an enriching adventure for children through the PlantGrowEat program at the Fair!

While this year’s Plant*Grow*Eat Program is undergoing some changes due to the Fair starting later and schools getting out earlier, the enthusiasm remains high. Numerous classes from Pre-Kindergarten through 6th Grade are excited to embark on a journey at The Farm.

“We support Don Diego’s Plant*Grow*Eat Bus Program because it’s important for children to learn how their food is grown; it’s the basis for healthy eating. It’s fun to see the kids enjoying the fruits of their labor and tasting their crops. I tell them not to worry about a little dirt; just go ahead and take a bite!”
