  • Learn through direct exploration about our food system.
  • Engage in cooperative and inquiry-based learning with our peers.
  • Enhance our awareness of the food system and foods or our region.
  • Understand the links between food choices and the food system.
  • Distinguish between foods that are likely to support the community food systems and those which are less likely to do so.
  • Immerse us in highly participatory, community-based experience, involving interviewing community members and gaining information about the food system.
  • Foster relationships with our community and between the agricultural and non-agricultural community.
