Now launching: MSK's Intergenerational Fellowship. Prospective fellows, mentors, and partners can join the interest list.
MSK’s Ag-STEAM Education program engages youth and community learners in hands-on environmental education that integrates agriculture with science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics.
Through applied learning in garden and community settings, participants build practical skills in food production, soil stewardship, composting, and renewable energy, while developing the knowledge and problem-solving capacity needed to address food access and environmental challenges.
This program serves as an entry point into MSK’s broader food systems and workforce development approach.
