2015 Summer Junior Farmers Program

Rockland Farm Alliance's Junior Farmer Program introduces children to sustainable agriculture, healthy living and environmental stewardship through discovery, play and plenty of time getting their hands dirty working on the farm.
Our expert staff of farmers and education specialists will lead children through farming workshops, science experiments, planting and harvesting, crop sampling, bug hunts, beekeeping workshops, raw cooking activities, nature walks, arts and crafts, and highly interactive organic and biodynamic agriculture education.
At the end of the week, each junior farmer takes home their field journal, recipes, unique farming knowledge and a new perspective on where food comes from.
