Farm Hands program
Designed for high school youth, our Farm Hands are introduced to farming and gardening education that teaches the histories of traditional farming practices, crediting the sources, most of which are Indigenous, Afro-centric, and Asian. They work the land alongside our team and Lead Educator to practice and continue these closed circle processes. We also have guest teachers come share expertise with us, including how to run small food-oriented businesses, growing unique and indigenous varieties of crops, cooking and food preparation, and more.

The Farm Hands program is a hands-on program where youth are actively engage in real farming and gardening practices. This includes many things like seeding, planting, pruning, and harvesting.
A comprehensive skills checklist was created by our team with input from urban farmers in Los Angeles to help us teach the most practical skills that could be used in the farming workforce. Each program participant starts at a beginners level, with opportunities to advance their skills as well as teach and advise their peers.
