Here’s What People Say About Grow Your Lunch:

“Ben is one of the very best facilitators I’ve ever worked with. He is able to focus a very diverse group, help organize them and impart valuable information, all with a gentle sense of humor and understanding.  His knowledge of “what it takes” to do a project is considerable, and yet he is open to new learning!  Ben is also an excellent teacher. Our students loved working with him. We could not have gotten our garden project underway without his help.”

-Ellen Evans, Principal, The Meher Schools, Lafayette, CA

“Working with Ben Eichorn has been a pleasure.  He is resourceful and dependable and he brings garden dreams to life”

- Rae Viscovi, Director of Curriculum, The Town School, San Francisco, CA

“Ben was able to wear so many hats for Marin Horizon School as we successfully built a garden program from scratch.  He was a consultant, educator, and gardener and always managed to make big ideas seem manageable and doable.  He trained teachers, students and parents during workshops and weekend gardening days and gave the teachers the tools they needed to run the program without his presence.“

- Charlie Denby, The Marin Horizon School, Mill Valley, CA
