Our Vision

Preparing youth for their future

 
 

Our vision is to build skills, hope, optimism and self-efficacy in youth to help them become the best version of themselves.

We work with kids to train them in first job skills, social emotional learning competencies and nutrition education all while having lots of fun and providing positive mentoring.

Providing a space on our farm where kids can learn how to have a job - signing in to

work, tracking their hours, conducting mock interviews and dealing with customers - prepares them to be successful in our community and compete for entry level jobs.

More than 50% of the nation’s young workforce has never held a basic, paying job. We aim to change that - all while having a blast on the farm!
