We believe in making connections. When children learn how to harvest potatoes with their own hands, when adults learn how to participate in our local textile supply chain, when people get to know their farmers--we create networks that support a more just and community-centered food system. Farm-based education nurtures people’s engagement in where their food comes from, grows their interest in trying new things, and develops the skills needed to provide for themselves.

Common Ground offers hands-on, farm-based education programs for adults and children of all ages, and provides financial support to ensure access to people of all incomes. Our education programs include Farm Camp, Programming for Schools including field trips to the farm, Preschool on the Farm, Homeschool on the Farm, After School programs, and Adult Workshops.
