Young Farmers
Our Young Farmers program offers middle and high school aged kids a chance to learn what it takes to keep a working farm working.
We believe a meaningful connection to land, food, and farmer can be found at any age.
As a part of the Farm Team, Young Farmers learn the importance of hard work. Planting, watering, nurturing, weeding, harvesting, and washing - there are many tasks involved with growing the head of lettuce that makes its way to our dinner table. It is our hope that by exposing local youth to agriculture right in their backyard, while giving them a chance to work with their hands alongside their friends, will make for more informed eaters and healthier communities.
