The Youth Farm Project

Last checked August 2026

The Youth Farm Project in Ithaca, NY runs a summer program where local youth ages 14–18 farm four acres of vegetables grown without synthetic inputs and manage laying hens—doing everything from planting and harvesting to selling through a mobile market and Harvest Box program. The nonprofit centers food justice and equitable food access; it is a teen work/education program rather than a traditional recreational day camp.

They empower youth from diverse social and economic backgrounds as integral participants in building equitable local food communities. YFP is dedicated to healing our food system through an anti-racist organizing lens by bringing together youth from diverse backgrounds to explore environmental and social injustice within the food system.
