Join us this school year 2023 - 2024 as we visit Sweet Organic Farm Community Farm located at 6942 W. Comanche Avenue, Tampa, FL 33634. to help with their FARM TO TABLE event. During this time your kids come together with farm Staff to setup, prepare food, and help in all areas needed for the public event listed.
Whether we are prepping food, cleaning the farm, cooking, or decorating, we are so glad to be able to work in collaboration with such a great farm to help promote healthy eating! What a great way to spend your day with our #ProjectJCOA Program!
