Loop It Up and SUGA partner with Green Truck Pub for School Garden Program

Loop It Up Savannah, the Savannah Urban Garden Alliance (SUGA), Deep, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (SCCPSS) are partnering with Green Truck Pub (GTP) on Saturday, November 13, 2021 at GTP, 2430 Habersham St. The event will be held from 12-4 pm and feature outdoor children’s activities, live music, and local vendors. GTP is re-re-debuting favorite menu items including HOT HAM and SWISS, GREEK SALADS, and MORE for the celebration.

Loop It Up, SUGA, and Deep will be on-site with kids’ activities and information about the School Garden program, funded in part by a USDA Farm to Schools grant.  The School Garden program includes gardening, farm visits, nutrition, local produce samples, and educational activities. School garden activities will encourage healthy eating, teach the fundamentals of good nutrition, connect children to the concept of growing seasons, promote healthy outdoor physical activity, and offer students the chance to participate in environmentally meaningful activity.

“We are passionate about public education and local agriculture. This program is in our sweet spot, and we are proud to support school gardens, farm field trips, and nutrition education for SCCPSS elementary and pre-K students. We hope our matching funds will bring in lots of donations. We are also excited to offer our regulars’ old favorites –  the Papa’s Salad and Greek-style Burger – after a tumultuous time for our community and our industry.” – Whitney Shephard Yates, Co-owner, Green Truck Pub.

GTP will be open for regular business from 11:30 am. The outdoor event runs from 12 to 4pm with live music, a petting zoo, local vendors, kids’ activities, and information from community partners.

The event highlights GTP’s “Grand Re-re-re-opening” with indoor and outdoor seating, full service, and the return of our full menu. As always, GTP is proud to partner with Coastal Georgia farms and American Craft brewers.
