THE CASE FOR FARM-BASED EDUCATION

"Farm-based education is powerful because it is hands-on and experiential. The pure joy that we see so often in a child’s face when they hold a chicken, discover a worm in the soil, or have a cow eat grass right from their hand for the first time illustrates the impact that this type of education can have." 

Brian Kuser,  Fernbrook Farms Environmental Education Center, Bordentown, NJ
