EDUCATION THAT GROWS
From the Classroom to the Farm...
At Keturah Non-Profit Micro Farms, Inc., we believe education is one of the most powerful tools for creating sustainable food systems.
Growing food is important.
But teaching someone how to grow food can create an impact that continues for generations.
Our educational programs introduce children to science and agriculture, expose students to food production and agricultural careers, provide practical education for adult farmers, and demonstrate innovative micro-farming methods that can be adapted by communities.
and From One Generation to the Next.
CHILDREN > STUDENTS > FARMERS > COMMUNITIES > FUTURE GENERATIONS

SCHOOL-BASED AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION
Where Science, Agriculture & Discovery Come Together
Children are naturally curious.
Why do plants grow?
Where does our food come from?
What happens beneath the soil?
How do water, sunlight, energy, and the environment affect life?
Our Science for Kids initiative provides opportunities to turn that curiosity into learning.
The program was developed by a former award-winning U.S. Science and Mathematics teacher and is designed to introduce children to scientific concepts through engaging educational experiences.
