Winter is upon us, but the CGBEES continue to venture out and about around this great city. Each week, the middle schoolers who take part in our year-round after school program visit places of innovation and sustainability across NYC, of which there are no shortage! Pictured below: City Growers visits the Greenpoint Fish Market!
Farmacy Beauty products are natural and plant-derived. That, in itself, is enough reason to check them out. But check this out: Farmacy regularly and enthusiastically donates a portion of the proceeds from their honey-based products to support City Growers Honeybee Education programming! Purchasing Farmacy products isn’t only a win for your skin – it’s a win for the youth of NYC and the future of our planet!
Bringing the Farm to the Classroom!
Farmer in the Classroom workshops offer hands-on experiences for schools looking to deepen students’ understanding of agriculture, food, and urban environments all year long. Our farmer-educators visit classrooms all across NYC, engaging students and teachers alike in building compost bins and/or learning all about honeybees! Share with a teacher, or email us at info@citygrowers.org to schedule your in-school workshops today!
