Entrepreneurial Youth Development

Our entrepreneurial youth development program gives local youth experience with planting, cultivating, harvesting and cooking over the course of the season. Participants maintain their vegetable beds, create their own recipes, and explore many aspects of the local food system. This program culminates in a farmers’ market experience where participants harvest and sell their crops at a neighborhood farmers’ market.
