City Farm SLO's 2023 Youth Empowerment Program students tour Center

Center team members Lawson Orradre, Colette Smith and Kiley Jensen hosted 12 high school-age students for a tour of our facilities. The students are participating in the City Farm SLO's 2023 Youth Empowerment Program, which provides exceptional leadership development opportunities to teens of all backgrounds through career/college readiness workshops and technical instruction in regenerative agriculture. https://www.cityfarmslo.org/yep

The students were able to explore the fields and hoop houses, visit the entomology lab, and pack their own strawberry clamshells! A huge thank you to City Farm SLO for allowing us to host this tour. We always love the opportunity to educate the younger generation about the strawberry industry.
