Farm Hands Education
Farmhands at Moonstone Farm during Farm Camp. Farm Hands is the education component of our work and serves youth, families, the community and emerging farmers and ranchers through the following education opportunities:
- Summer Day Camps for Youth
- Field Trips
- Family Programs
- Community/ Adult Education Programs
- Apprenticeships
- Internships
Farm Hands curricula focuses on the art and skill of growing and raising food through the lens of both cultural history and current farming and ranching practices. All of our programs are grounded in hands-on learning opportunities and cultivate exploration, inquiry, direct experience and fun! Program offerings are designed to meet participants’ interest and skill level, no matter what age, and collectively provide the awareness, understanding and agricultural skills to grow healthy, local food for a bountiful agricultural future.
