The presence of vegetable gardens in schools is increasingly uncommon due to the great ease and practicality of the use of industrialized products to feed students, which causes the devaluation of natural foods and the growing disinterest of children for using vegetables in food. However, the use of vegetables is of great importance for the nutritional development of children who are growing. Therefore, with the present work, the objective was to implement gardens in schools of Early Childhood, Elementar School and High School. During the year 2017 the project was developed in four schools in different locations in Novo Cabrais, Cachoeira do Sul and Santiago, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. An informative lecture was held dealing with information about the preparation of the gardens and importance of the consumption of healthy foods. At the end of the development of the project, it was possible to observe how satisfactory and relevant it was for each of the students, regardless of age, to help planting the seedlings, to observe the growth and development of each plan.
