Farm School Partnership (K-8)

The scope of this project is a year-long, ongoing series of monthly farm visits with students and educators. We have been asked by multiple community educators to develop educational partnerships for their students, and this school year we have initiated a partnership with North Carroll Community School.

Farm students will:
-learn about methods and production (ecological impact of farming operations)
-contribute to farm work at their level (animal chores, weeding, planting)
-grow some of their own food, to be donated to Food Sunday.

Students will have regular, ongoing engagement with the ecological and community health aspects of local farming, and develop their identities as community members and stakeholders.
