Farming with Children and Community
Urban farms can be much more than places that grow food. Join Derrienne Reese of Asibara Forest in Detroit, Remi Harrington of Zoo City Farm and Food Network in Kalamazoo, and Devon Wilson of Sunlight Gardens in Battle Creek as they share how their farms engage youth through forest school programs, Freedom Schools, hands-on job training, and community-centered learning. Explore how urban farms can serve as classrooms, workplaces, gathering spaces, and sources of healthy food while building the next generation of growers and community leaders.
