The dream of Eco Agriculture Education Center (Ag Center) is becoming a reality. We have partnered with North Florida Arts & Sciences Academy and the land preparation and building of the greenhouse has begun. The Ag Center will have raised garden beds, 1,000 vertical hydroponic grow towers, a u-pick-it farm, a 100-foot greenhouse, as well as an apiary for teaching bee farming and honey harvesting.
Greenhouse
For growing all year round.
Raised Garden Beds
For healthy growing vegetables and herbs.
Hydroponic Grow Towers
For growing large quantities of food in small spaces.
Additionally the Kids Feeding Kids Ag Center will also have an education building with classrooms and banquet room facilities for use by various community organizations, like the Future Farmers of America (FFA).
Kids Feeding Kids will host after-school programs and summer camps as well as adult gardening classes at the center. Master gardeners will be welcome to come to share their expertise. Stay tuned to Kids Feeding Kids on Facebook for the latest updates.
Call anytime to schedule a time to stop by and see what we are up to and learn how to grow your own food.
