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!

The cost of one bus is approximately $500. We welcome donations in any amount.

  • Fair staff visit elementary classrooms throughout the county to provide growing materials.
  • Students learn how to plant a seed, help it grow, and eat the veggie or edible flower.
  • During the Fair, students bring their plants to be judged and tasted.
  • They also visit Ag areas to learn more about farming and nutrition — and to have a great time!
  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

“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!”

Marie Kelley and Stephanie Sibley, Les Dames de Escoffier
