Harvesting Knowledge Act of 2023

This bill amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to expand student grant programs. It authorizes schools receiving Title IV funds to use grants for hands-on learning with hydroponic, aquaponic, and other agricultural technology systems. The key provision adds specific grant activities, including exposing students to vertical farming systems (like aeroponic towers) and soil-less plant growth methods that connect to STEM education. The bill directly affects K-12 schools participating in federal grant programs by defining eligible agricultural systems for these learning opportunities.
