Program -- Growing Delmarva Farmers

    At least half of a sustainable foodshed is talented and well-educated farmers dedicated to ecological stewardship and growing healthy, nutritious food. LESSON is reaching out to young people through sustainable community gardening projects, developing internships on Delmarva farms to provide needed farming experience, and supporting continuing education on sustainable practices for Delmarva farmers.

In addition to resources found elsewhere at ShoreFood.org, LESSON has sponsored over 20 trainings and workshops on a variety of sustainable agricultural topics and practices.
