Congratulations on your new MicroFarm@Home Kit! We are so excited for you to begin growing your own produce at home and engaging with our STEM educational activities!
MF@Home STEM Curriculum
This curriculum is designed for learners of all ages to grow their own produce like real farmers and think critically like real scientists & engineers! You can follow our basic “Root Curriculum” sequence or feel free to try out some of our branching extension activities! We will periodically update the curriculum and continue adding new branches! Happy farming!
