Sustainable Agriculture
Research and Education Grant Project
Members of the That's Natural team were awarded a grant from the USDA’s SARE (Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education) program to create a curriculum on sustainable agriculture for elementary level students.
We learned many lessons, ourselves, from organizing the participants and using our curriculum to educate 1st-5th graders at an after-school program at the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center.

between seeds of various types of produce.
What was most important was the behavior and though-processes of these young and thoughtful minds. How our students listened to the presenters, asked questions, held their seeds and other creations, and summarized their day, showed all of us “teachers” how very important it is to forge connections between young people and agriculture.
Thanks to the farmers, ranchers, producers, parents, teachers, and community members, we were able to create a model that could be implemented in other schools and in other communities.
We look forward to the progress to come, and are grateful for your input and participation.
