Farm Camp
Our summer farm camp is all about food! Each year, we partner with the City’s Parks & Recreation Department to host local summer campers at one of their recreation centers. We explore a variety of topics with our farm team members, including urban agriculture, food access, food waste, cooking, and more!
High School Apprenticeship Program
The Apprenticeship program is an annual program that is offered from June- July to teach high school youth about food systems and soft skills. Apprentices spend six weeks at the farm learning about organic farming, nutrition and cooking, volunteer management, leadership skills, and more. This program is made possible through our partnership with the Boys & Girls Clubs YouthForce program.
School Gardens Program
THE GOAL
of Beardsley Community Farm's School Garden Program is to make eating fresh, healthy foods more accessible and familiar to our community. It achieves this through after school garden clubs, cooking lessons, garden recess time, taste tests, maintaining school gardens, supporting teachers who use the gardens for lessons, and fresh produce distributions with recipe cards for enrolled families. Sites that we serve include:
Other Programming and Outreach
If you are an organization, school, or community center interested in receiving educational programming or outreach from Beardsley, please reach out to us! We would love to work with you. We are able to facilitate programming and workshops on the farm or at your location. We can cover topics related to gardening, cooking, and natural crafts. We can also table for community events or talk to your group about the work Beardsley does.
