Connecting K-12 students to agriculture and natural resources in powerful ways
The Challenge
By the year 2050, world population will grow to 9.7 billion people.
Feeding these additional 2 billion people, in ways that sustain environmental, economic, and human health, is a monumental task that will challenge agriculture like never before.
To meet this challenge, we will need a public that supports modern, science-based approaches to food and agriculture.
At the same time, we need to recruit the best and brightest people to become tomorrow’s farmers, scientists, technicians, and analysts.
The Solution
Successfully engaging young people across demographic and socioeconomic boundaries is paramount to our future success.
What We Do
We have developed a model of education that engages teachers and creates special learning opportunities
Engage Students
Engage students by framing issues in ways that have personal meaning to them and encourages them to develop authentic values about agriculture and natural resources.
Partner With Schools
Partner with public, private, and home schools to connect a broad diversity of students to concepts taught in the classroom to real life, through hands-on experiences in agriculture and natural resources.
Inspire Curiosity
Inspire curiosity through dynamic, interactive and shared learning experiences, led by talented and experienced educators.
Create Moments
