Students explore their own creativity as well as the inspiring natural and cultural environment of the East End of Long Island.
The students grow and harvest vegetables in our organic garden and prepare healthy recipes. They work with naturalists to discover the flora and fauna of our landscape and waterways. They visit local cultural organizations to investigate the history and artistic heritage of the community. Arts, STEM, writing, sports and swimming are all a part of our weekly program schedule.

Summer iGrow students learn to plant, nurture and harvest vegetables through our organic garden curriculum. Guided by a cooking instructor, students use the organically farmed produce, herbs, and other whole foods to prepare healthy and delicious recipes.
In addition to weeding and watering, and studying ladybugs, worms, and aphids, students enjoy sketching and reading in the garden. Our iGrow summer learning program benefits from the special cultural and natural environment of the East End by allowing us to immerse students in artistic, scientific and wellness-focused activities. Field trips may include seining in Accabonac Harbor, reseeding clam and scallop beds in Three Mile Harbor and visiting a beekeeper on an organic farm. Sites we visit may include Louse Point, the Walking Dunes, Quail Hill Farm, the East Hampton Town Fish Hatchery, Guild Hall, the East Hampton Farm Museum, the East Hampton Farmers’ Market, and the Town Marine Museum, among others.
Our farm-to-table approach allows students to harvest vegetables and herbs and use these ingredients in their recipes. Smoothies, salads, vegetable quesadillas and whole wheat pasta with homemade pesto are some of our students’ favorite recipes. Through this program, the palates of our students expand. Our motto: “if they pick it, they’ll eat it.”
We would like to thank the Kate W. Cassidy Foundation for their longtime and generous support of iGrow Summer Learning Lab.
