Conceived of as a collection of indoor/outdoor structures connected to expansive vegetable gardens and a dramatic wooded context, NYBG's Edible Academy is a year-round teaching center focusing on the fundamental relationships between plants, gardening, sustainability, cooking, nutrition, and health. The project has been sited to highlight its magnificent setting, providing educational opportunities on sustainable agriculture and native plants in an environment that emphasizes the relationships between cultivated and natural landscapes.
