HELP US RAISE 15K TO BUILD A CHILDREN’S GARDEN AT FARM LOT 59!

In 2015 we hosted over 150 kids on our farm including Montessori, Long Beach Unified, Child Development Centers, Homeschool, Charter and a few private schools visited us.  

We are fortunate to have a certified Edible Schoolyard Academy educator to teach our little learners who come to the farm. We love hosting field trips and will increase this portion of our program in 2016. 

                                           We have all the pieces to host and educate except the garden. We need to build our students a safe area for them to learn and explore. They need a small scale garden tailored to their needs. We need science equipment and small garden tools for them to use. 

                                            Donate to #farmlotkids to help make this happen.
