All Kids Want To Be a HERO
It’s true, kids want to be the hero in their story. Mezzacello Urban Farm is purpose-built to empower and engage kids to do just that. At our Summer Camps and workshops, kids get to see and find problems, use tools, imagination, and new skills to solve them. Then they get to own that story and that new truth about themselves. This is our standard operation provedure here.

How Menterns Can Save The World
Part Mentor and part Intern, the MenTerns are here at Mezzacello Urban Farm to explore, learn, and teach how we can empower our youth to save the world for themselves. They will live in and change this world. They are invested in saving it. Kids are aware enough that they need to do something, something bold, brave, and different. They needed a safe and gracious place to practice, fail, recover, and triumph. This is the story of how MenTerns can save the world.

The Sustainability Tax
Sustainability is not cheap or easy. It requires innovation, commitment, passion and sacrifice. That last one is what I call the Sustainability Tax. We paid it and are willing to teach or consult.
