ABOUT SEED TO SHELF

Copy of Roster.jpg

Our Pursuit  

Seed to Shelf™ is a paid fellowship opportunity for youth and young adults ages 14 – 26. This year-long, project-based learning experience at Moonwater Farm in Compton is a 24-week skill-building program to increase participant capacity and interest in our food system and economic democracy.

Using items grown and tended at Moonwater Farm, participants create a product or service they can sell.  Using a cooperative economic model, the course focuses on product development, relevant industry certifications, culinary skills, land tending, and business. 

The program employs a nontraditional educational model that challenges consumerism and celebrates cultural diversity through a culture of care, collective action, and storytelling.
