Our mission is to provide confidence and leadership skills to youth of Delta County, Colorado and beyond.   By bringing youth together with experienced farmers, teens will be introduced to the rich variety of farm operations. Life skills will be developed in the area of communication, work ethic, and appreciation for sustainable farming practices.
