Growing vegetables in a Childcare Centre

Question

Are tomato leaves and stems poisonous? I have conflicting information & need to know if they are a safe plant before they are planted.

Answer 1

This poison control center lists tomato leaves as "1" on a 0 to 3 toxicity scale and tomato vines as "2":

There are some safer plants that you might consider. For example, squash leaves and vines are actually edible.
