Education
TreeGrace Farms helps young people to sow a brighter future by bringing hundreds
of children to the farm every year to learn the importance of agriculture and
responsible land stewardship. At our annual Earth Day celebration,
schoolchildren come to help plant seeds, enjoy the petting zoo, play games, and
participate in educational workshops.
TreeGrace Farms sponsors the School Garden project at Iles Elementary and
Roscoe-Wilson Elementary in
Lubbock, where we provide soil, seeds, and know-how in starting an organic
garden. We are excited to join Ilse Elementary’s magnet school in it’s diverse and innovative
teaching program, which emphasizes fine arts and media.
TreeGrace Farms is a partner with Core Knowledge, an educational program focused
on academic excellence, greater fairness, and higher literacy for elementary and
middle schools.
