Spark-Y is a 501(c)(3) non-profit empowering youth through hands-on education rooted in sustainability and entrepreneurship. We integrate interdisciplinary curriculum with hands-on agriculture systems, such as aquaponics, mushroom growing, and vermiculture into classrooms throughout the Twin Cities metro, where we serve over 1,500 youth annually. Spark-Y serves its mission of youth empowerment through three branches: school programs, an annual internship, and an urban agriculture lab (UAL). These initiatives work together systematically, creating multiple touch points for youth engagement.
