"Our students will grow up learning a lot more about the things OGC sells – this helps their overall health and enjoyment of fruits and veggies. We’re using the grant to expand our thornless blackberries and buy strawberry starts – anything that students can pick and immediately eat is a win!" -Bethel Farm Manager Kyle Ryan Based at Kalapuya High School, the district’s “Bethel Farm” is an immersive outdoor classroom where students get hands-on learning experience as they plan, plant and tend crops. Through the farm, students learn botany, agriculture, science and job skills in a real-world setting. The food the students grow goes right to cooking classes, where they learn food shopping and nutrition. Students are also welcome to take food home and periodically Bethel holds free farmers markets for them. Some of the crops go into school lunches. And whenever Bethel has food to donate, it goes directly to the food bank clients at FOOD for Lane County.
