Next Urban Ag Generation (NuAg)
an urban youth farm training initiative that cultivates youth to learn about food systems and how to advocate for sustainable food systems in their community. Over 150 youth have become certified as junior urban master producers.
Students from multiple schools in Gary can participate in the nationally recognized 12-week Junior Master Gardeners Program. This hands-on program supports youth in learning about agriculture, becoming involved in their community, developing an appreciation for the environment, understanding basic nutrition, and preparing fresh produce. This program is offered in collaboration with multiple urban farms in Gary.
Stay tuned for registration and upcoming program information.
