Community Ag Education at Martial Cottle Park
University of California Cooperative Extension, Santa Clara County (UC Regents)
About the Project
The innovative Living Loop Community Agricultural Education Program will set out to transform how community members understand and participate in sustainable agriculture and climate resilience. Through three interconnected program pillars, "Soil to Supper" field trips, Community Farm Workdays and the Climate-Friendly Farmer Series, this program will demonstrate the complete agricultural cycle while directly addressing climate change mitigation through hands-on learning experiences. The program will serve diverse audiences from high school students to adult community groups, providing both educational tours and volunteer engagement opportunities that foster environmental stewardship and practical skills development.
