MORE ABOUT PILOT LIGHT:
Pilot Light is a Chicago-founded, nationally-operating Food Education nonprofit that partners with educators to bring hands-on food, cooking, nutrition, and agriculture education into the classroom. Our signature Food Education Standards equip teachers with the skills and resources they need to integrate Food Education into their core curriculum, so that Food Education never becomes an extra “thing on the plate.” Instead, our resources align with state educational standards and curriculum so that food becomes a teaching tool for all subject areas and grade levels, ensuring that students learn *through* food and *about* food all at once.
