NOW: Students at Horlick High School in Racine experience urban farming by raising chickens in class

RACINE, Wis. (CBS 58) – At Horlick High School, students are getting the opportunity to get a farm fresh future.

The students started raising chickens last year as part of a lesson in farm-to-table food systems and sustainability.

For CBS 58 Sunday Morning, our team learned how the chickens’ eggs become part of the course curriculum in other parts of the school.
