At Horlick High School in Racine, Wisconsin, students are actively involved in the Horlick Harvesters program, which allows them to raise chickens and learn about farm-to-table food systems. Science teacher Tom Pfeiffer initiated the program to utilize an underused courtyard, starting with garden beds and expanding to include chickens. Students from various disciplines, including construction, marketing, and culinary arts, contribute to the program. Construction students built the garden beds and are planning to construct a fence for the chickens, while culinary students use the eggs produced for cooking. Marketing students have developed a brand for the program and sell eggs to support its finances. The program is particularly significant for students in Racine, a food desert, as it provides them with a direct understanding of food sources. Students express excitement and motivation, with some stating that their experiences have sparked interest in future animal husbandry. Overall, the Horlick Harvesters program is not just about food; it fosters student engagement and responsibility.
