About the Program:

Tucson Village Farm (TVF) is a working urban farm by and for the youth of Tucson. TVF is a seed-to-table program designed to reconnect young people to a healthy food system, teach them how to grow and prepare fresh food and empower them to make healthy life choices. We do this through a variety of dynamic, hands-on programs targeting all age groups:
Growing Forward: K-5 agriculture and nutrition education field trip
Digging Deeper: Grades 6-12 agriculture, nutrition education and food preparation
Farm Camp: Farm immersion for youth ages 7-11
Family workshops, community events and more!
TVF is program of the University of Arizona, Pima County Cooperative Extension.
