SUMMARY:From The Ground Up: Kentfield Kids
DESCRIPTION:Kentfield Kids is a free opportunity for your kids to get hands-on learning about how our food grows and how it grows them! From toddlers to teens\, all ages are welcome to dig their fingers in the soil. \nAt From The Ground Up Farms\, we started a nutrition education and garden program for Butte County Home Schoolers and toddlers in order to provide a safe space to teach our children about nutrition and growing food.

The kids have so much fun that they don’t even realize the science\, math\, nutrition\, physical fitness\, and so many other lessons that are included in the process of growing food. \nAll children are welcome and this is a free program. \nVisit our Event Website link for more information. \nAnd to learn more about how this amazing venture began\, read the founder’s story at: \nNorth State Parent : North State Parent April 2025 \n No registration is required.  \n  \n
