Welcome to Zenger Farm

We are a working urban farm that models, promotes and educates about sustainable food systems, environmental stewardship, community development and access to good food for all.

Education Program

 

Exploring the roots of food and environmental stewardship

Zenger Farm's experiential and science based programs teach youth and adults about the importance of food, farming, wetland conservation and environmental stewardship in fostering healthy urban communities. Participants learn that healthy food comes from healthy soil, which can be anywhere - even in the city.

The Education program at Zenger Farm provides opportunities for people to come to the farm to get their hands dirty and learn where their food comes from. Through our Field Trip programs students learn about sustainable farming practices, healthy soils, beneficial insects, and wetland ecology. By participating in service-learning projects, they have the opportunity to be farmers and stewards of the land.
