GIY Ireland

We are GIY, a proud not-for-profit, social enterprise inspiring a global movement to Gro, Cook, Eat for a healthy, happy and sustainable future. We know that the act of growing our own food nurtures a profound connection to, and curiosity about, where our food comes from. We believe that it is this connection, we call it ‘Food Empathy', on a global scale, that is the key to fixing our broken food system. But it's not just about growing. How we cook, eat and come together plays a vital role in our connection to food. And community is the key. We have seen time and time again, the power of community in helping to unlock and amplify that connection.

At GIY, we believe in empowering young people across Ireland to become sustainability leaders. Our goal is to inspire a generation that values sustainable practices, fosters innovation, and actively engages in the fight against climate change. By developing these practical skills through our Primary and Post Primary initiatives, students gain confidence to make a positive impact on their communities and the environment.
