The NEN Farm School, launched by the North East Network in 2016, is an experiential educational program blending theory and hands-on practice. Themed ‘Bridging the Farm to Plate Gap,’ it addresses the growing disconnect between today’s youth and their local, sustainable diets. By reconnecting young people with their roots, the program aims to teach them about sustainable food systems and farming, fostering a deeper connection with their culture and nature.
