   Kids Participating     Small farms and non-toxic farming create wonderful environments for children to live in or visit. Kids growing up in urban environments are often isolated from the earth and its natural cycles. Field trips to farms and school gardens help them reconnect with their food system, and teach them to value agriculture and ecology. On family farms, kids participating in the day-to-day work of the farm may then carry on the family tradition and become the next generation of farmers.
