In addition to Discovery Zone sponsors, a large network of partners and supporters will provide product, services and resources to create a free community family event, to connect kids and families to a wholesome and magical farm experience in NYC. The theme of the Farm Fresh Kids Festival is EAT, LEARN, PLAY - A Day at the Farm!

The purpose of the Festival is to connect kids with where food comes from, and how food grows. The Festival is also a community benefit to raise awareness and funds for non-profit organizations working in NYC to fight childhood obesity, hunger and poor nutrition. These organizations include Harlem Grown, City Growers NYC, Green Bronx Machine, Edible Schoolyard NYC, Fresh Air Fund, Grow to Learn and others growing a healthy and happy world for kids.

Save the date – Saturday, September 17th! It will be a perfect way to bring the kids to a day at the farm in New York City, and kick off the new school year healthy!
