The local community is enthusiastic visited TLF

The Learning Farm (TLF) held a "Gelar Griya" event to introduce TLF’s programs to the surrounding community. The purpose of this event was to raise awareness of TLF among potential students, partners, volunteers, and donors, and to foster stronger ties with the local community.

The event began with a warm reception for guests, offering beverages and local TLF farm-based snacks, such as boiled bananas and sweet potatoes. This was followed by a presentation on TLF’s programs and a farm tour, providing an introduction to the facilities and training processes at TLF. The event concluded with a friendly gathering, creating an atmosphere of connection between guests and organizers.

Visitor enthusiasm was evident in the many discussions and questions that followed. Some community members expressed interest in enrolling their children or relatives as students at TLF. Gelar Griya successfully opened the door for the local community to get to know TLF better, while also enhancing the potential for support to create a significant impact in the fields of agriculture and youth development in Indonesia.

Embracing Creativity Through Information Technology

By Rathy | Public Relations

Students show off their cooking creativity

On Wednesday evening, we hosted an inspiring Creativity Class designed to ignite the passions of our students and help them discover new ways to express their talents, particularly in the world of culinary arts. This class offered a unique blend of creativity, cooking, and entrepreneurship, allowing the students to think outside the box while learning valuable skills. Several talented students from Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) proudly showcased their culinary skills by preparing Jagung Bose, a traditional corn porridge from their homeland, and a creative twist on a beloved snack, Jasuke, topped with indulgent custard sauce and melted cheese. These delicious dishes were not only a treat to the taste buds but also offered a glimpse into the students' potential as future food entrepreneurs.

The event was a perfect example of how creativity can flourish when paired with technology. Not only did the students express themselves through cooking, but they also got the chance to showcase their work to a wider audience. The evening was even more special as it was streamed live on Instagram, via @lifeattlf, allowing our followers and friends worldwide to join in the experience. Viewers were able to witness the excitement and joy of the students but also follow along as the recipes were shared in real-time, opening up new ways for people to engage with the learning process. The use of social media added an extra layer of connectivity, bringing the culinary creations into the homes of many who might never have been able to experience them otherwise.

What made this Creativity Class even more meaningful was the combination of hands-on learning and the power of digital platforms to spread knowledge and inspiration. By combining traditional cooking with modern technology, students were able to not only hone their culinary skills but also learn how to present their creations to a larger audience. This event perfectly illustrates how The Learning Farm encourages its students to think creatively, explore new possibilities, and take risks, all while staying grounded in their cultural roots. We believe that fostering creativity through technology is key to opening up new avenues for our student's personal growth and future success, especially in fields like culinary arts and entrepreneurship.

TLF students in the middle of activities

The Learning Farm (TLF) offers its students a stimulating array of challenges designed to enhance their educational experience and personal development. These challenges encompass diverse skills, from improving English proficiency through platforms like Duolingo to showcasing creativity in photography on Instagram and multimedia production with engaging videos about TLF. What sets these challenges apart is the incentive structure: students have the opportunity to win prizes such as visits to tourist attractions, cinema outings, or cash rewards, fostering excitement and motivation among participants.

Recently, a standout achievement among TLF students was the creation of an impactful video by students aimed at introducing TLF to a wider audience. This initiative not only demonstrated their technological and creative prowess but also highlighted TLF's commitment to nurturing digital literacy and communication skills. By encouraging collaborative efforts and leveraging accessible technology, TLF ensures that its students are well-prepared to thrive in a modern, interconnected world.

These challenges form a crucial part of TLF's educational approach, fostering competencies that go beyond traditional classroom learning. By promoting innovation, teamwork, and effective communication through practical tasks, TLF equips its students with the skills and confidence needed to succeed academically and professionally. As such, sharing these opportunities can inspire more young individuals to consider the transformative learning experiences offered at TLF, paving the way for a brighter future in education and beyond.
