Over the summer, young people will acquire skills and knowledge about a sustainable food system through urban farming, composting, nutrition education, and healthy living. They will help build the youth garden at the Bladensburg Farm, cook (and eat) delicious healthy meals, and find their own voices through poetry and art. Through field trips, they will explore food and health in Prince George's County.

Experienced urban farmers, artists, nutritionists and environmentalists will teach the youth about sustainability, local food production, healthy cooking and eating. We create a safe space where they can experience leadership development, personal growth, collaboration and job training.
