about Youth Farm and Market Project:

Teens can spend the summer working at one of nine urban gardening sites run by the Youth Farm and Market Project - covering over two acres in all - to plant, grow, and harvest thousands of pounds of produce.

Participants learn about environmental and nutrition issues - and about the origin of the food they eat - during free eight-week summer programs. Year-round internships are also available through the program, and through its Project Lead division, which helps kids learn and apply skills to improve their communities. Many volunteer opportunities for adults are offered, too.

Applications can be downloaded from the website and are typically due in early spring.
