Why a Bring the Farm to You program?

• So few children have opportunities to experience a touch or taste of the farm. Those early experiences are so important in developing interests in our living world and learning how we fit in with nature.

• Young adults may not have role models that can teach them about the basics of where their food and clothes from.  As children grow into adults, they want to become independent.  Topics about how we can provide for ourselves fascinate them and open up a world of possibility to explore.

• Many adults learn new topics best directly from another person, with the ability to get immediate answers to their questions. In a world of abundant information, having an expert parse out a new topic in an easy-to-understand demonstration helps avoid the feeling of overwhelm, makes the topic come to life, and gives them confidence that they can do it too.
