| The Ojai CRA brings students and adults on visits primarily to Rio Gozo Organic Farm. We work with people from age five upwards. We organize farm tours, classes and class visits, workshops and parties. Educationally, we cover topics including plant and pest identification, food tastings, definitions of organic and sustainable agriculture, planting and harvesting techniques, GMOs, farmworker justice, perceptions of "local" history of pesticides and fertilizers, and gender equality in agriculture. Program participants include CSU Channel Islands, Food for Thought, all the public schools in the Ojai Valley, UCSB, Oak Grove, Ojai Valley, Valley Oak and Thacher Schools, Ojai Birth and Resource Center, Home School groups and Boy Scout troops. Suggested donation for this program is $5.00 per person, with a $100 minimun. The CRA has grant funds available to support "Students on the Farm". To arrange a farm visit, or for more information about our programs and/or grant support, please contact David White at: david@ojaicra.org or (805) 390 0747 |
