Event Description

This is a MEET AT EVENT: Coastal Roots Farm; Encinitas, CA

We are working to keep your children’s minds working during spring break! Join Community Recreation for a visit to the farm for a dynamic and hands-on STEM workshop.  Experience first- hand the importance of soil health and how farmers influence the soil to impact what grows. Lunch will be served at the end of the workshop! Lunch included!
