Programs & Events
Our on farm programming centers on 4 Key Focus Areas: farm-scale permaculture, citizen science, Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK), and reskilling to preserve traditional practices.
These focuses help us live out our 3 Farm Goals of: Feeding Soil, Feeding Pollinators, and Feeding People.
