We deliver curriculum-based programs in alignment with Canada’s Sustainable Agriculture Strategy to engage teachers and students in contributing to solutions for sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship.

Our Purpose

The foundation for achieving global food security lies with one’s understanding of the importance of healthy soils and the role of nutrients to maximize the plant's potential. We offer online, in class, teacher conference, and field day learning events in collaboration with teachers and the agriculture industry! In line with our core values, we are focused on sustainable innovations in agriculture and environmental stewardship. Specifically in the areas of 4R Nutrient Stewardship, understanding soil and improving soil health, what plants need to grow, and the production of nutritious food!
