Vermont is on the forefront of place-based, experiential education for high school aged students, especially focused on food and forests. In this facilitated panel discussion, we’ll hear from two programs working with students to foster the skills and passion to care for the land. Students from Woodstock Union High School’s CRAFT (Community and Climate Resilience through Agriculture, Forestry, and Technology) Program and the Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Program of the Green Mountain Technology & Career Center will share about their experiences in the program and we’ll also hear from the program’s leaders about building and sustaining offerings like these.  

This event is perfect for parents, teachers, school leaders and anyone looking to learn about the creative, hands-on work happening to create the next generation of land stewards. 

The Vermont Land Trust welcomes and affirms all regardless of their age, culture, abilities, ethnic origin, gender, gender identity, marital status, nationality, race, religion, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status.
