“The mission of our Farm program is to help children become informed citizens, environmental stewards, educated consumers, social change-makers and community leaders. We believe that when you have people who are aware of and educated in the sources of their food, fiber, water and energy, they become powerful advocates and critics of the people and businesses that grow, produce, and supply these basic human needs.”

JOHN MCDANIEL, FORMER MCS FARM DIRECTOR (JULY 2016 - june 2024)
