We are transferring into an operating foundation focused on ag preservation; we would love to welcome students of all ages to participate on hands on activities that the school oversees, as long as it aligns with our purpose to educate towards the \"sustainable agriculture\" realm. An example would be reworking one of the dry ponds into a natural swimming pond and tracking progress of the ecosystem as it thrives or fails to and adjust from there. A greenhouse and truffle farm is also being planned, along with the rebuilding of a General Store which once was home on our farm, where we would love to work with the student to market and sell their produce for proceeds raised back to the school. Many opportunities to work together here. Please reach out!
