This book fills a void in the literature around how urban
agricultural education can be used to create opportunities to
educate youth and citizens who live in urban areas about growing
food. To date, very little has been written about program design
and the impact of such experiences on learning outcomes. In fact,
most of the journal articles and research to date has focused on
access, contextual factors, sustainability, relevance of urban
agricultural education, and the intersection of science of
agriculture. This book will cover such topics as how urban youth
learn science while engaged in urban agriculture programs, how such
programs support youth in becoming interested about healthy eating
and science more generally, and how to design urban agriculture
programs in support of STEM education. The chapters in this book
are written by educational researchers and each chapter has been
reviewed by researchers and practitioners.
