The aim of this article is to present students' opinions on education for sustainable development of rural areas. Research conducted included a diagnostic survey in a group of 144 students, who attend agriculture-pro filed classes, in their final years of secondary schools from Counties of Chojnice and Człuchow. The research has shown that the issues of education for sustainable development in rural areas do concern the youths, especially in the environmental aspect. The students notice the presence of these issues; they appear to have a certain level of environmental awareness and some of the aspects of sustainable development. It is necessary to constantly broaden children's, youths' and their teachers' educational capabilities, including study of responsibility for the environment and sustainable development of rural areas.
