Youth participating in our programs receive both classroom‑based instruction (through STEM & STEAM Based Camps and hands‑on field training at the Urban Farm & Local Golf Courses. Together, these spaces create a comprehensive pipeline into Michigan’s rapidly expanding green‑industry sectors. Our work in this area was recently highlighted in Golf Course Magazine, showcasing how our programs are opening doors for young people through environmental education and green‑career exposure.
