Youth Education

At UFI we strive to include youth in all our farm programs because we believe that no community wellness movement or land-based project is complete without the voices and participation of young people. During the school year, we partner with schools with the purpose of recultivating the role that food and land have in growing a healthier community, and over the summer we offer a 6-week immersive program for youth, known as The Garden.

School Year Programs 

We partner with schools all 180 days of the school year to co-create custom programs that meet the needs of our communities. From classroom visits and field trips to designing a food-growing program of your own, our partnership model paired with our Young Farmers’ Curriculum includes something for everyone.
