Experience
Farm-and-field setting - kids see crops in the ground or harvest them themselves before cooking. Strong public-program mission (run through U of A) means accessible pricing. Best fit for families interested in food-system literacy alongside cooking technique; younger kids especially benefit from the outdoor-plus-kitchen format.
