LEAF Education Corporate Membership

LEAF Education Corporate Membership LEAF Education works to engage, inspire, and motivate young people about food production, farming and the environment.

This is achieved through experiential learning to equip our future generations with balanced and informed insight into how their food is produced in harmony with the environment.

LEAF Education works across the education and agricultural sectors to mobilise farmers and educators to bring food production, farming and the environment into a learning context and embed an appreciation of farming into everyday life.

LEAF Education has national reach thanks to its team of Regional Education Consultants (RECs), covering England and Wales delivering resources, training, and facilitating relationships with local schools.

LEAF Education Corporate members demonstrate commitment to food, farming, and environmental education in a variety of ways, including collaborative resource development, joint projects, research and training, hosting meetings, seminars and events and through CPD.
