OUR PROGRAMS
The Maker’s Clubhouse is The Oasis Project’s STEAM (science, technology, engineering, agriculture, and math)—focused educational programming for young people who live, learn, and play in Homewood.
Children often fall in love with the sciences in elementary school, so it is imperative that our children have their own academic self-esteem building experiences with high-quality STEAM programming.

Better Food Better Me provides food literacy, nutrition education, cooking skills, and urban gardening basics. The program was born out of Oasis Farm & Fishery's mission to grow food, grow people, and grow community. Students learn first-hand where their food comes from and how to grow, harvest, and prepare many vegetables and turn them into healthy snacks and meals.
