young generation
Just swap the classroom for a hands-on lesson? No problem with "Grüne Woche young generation", the offers for children and young people during Grüne Woche!
In the school program, numerous exhibitors at the Grüne Woche offer special activities for school classes and other youth groups every year that deal with current topics relating to agriculture and the food industry, pet and animal husbandry, health and horticulture. Numerous offers in the areas of forestry, wood and recycling round off the activities.
The young generation hub focuses on career orientation for students from the 8th grade onwards. They can try out the professions on show from the fields of food, agriculture, gardening, the hotel industry, gastronomy, construction, climate and related areas.
School classes and their teachers are cordially invited to experience topics relevant to their lessons as part of the school program (on weekdays). All activities for families and children's groups can be used on weekdays and weekends.
