AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS
At the Farm

At Community Roots Farm (CRF), we seek to nurture, heal, and improve the quality of life of those around us, especially our Youth! CRF is safe, green, community space for us to grow, explore, and empower our community.

This Fall we are offering afterschool programs in Art, Gardening and Botany, and Sports and Wellness for FREE to youth. We prioritize enrollment for youth in the Oceanside Unified School District and from historically underserved communities.

We aim to provide high quality programming that reconnect youth to the land and their community while learning new skills and being exposed to a variety of positive mentors.
