Engaging Youth in Urban Agriculture (Workshop for Educators)

This course is designed for adults working with children and includes innovative ways of engaging them in agriculture. It addresses elementary, middle and high school youth activities. All levels include experiential activities that will keep youth engaged and having fun while they are learning about agriculture. Participants are encouraged to bring their own ideas and successful projects from previous work experiences. There is a field trip to a local school garden, and ideas about engaging teens in a farmer’s market will be included.
