Our goals and aspirations revolve around the belief that the ultimate goal of farming is not the growing of crops, but the cultivation and perfection of human beings. With this principle in mind, our farm offers education to the community in taste, stewardship, and the ongoing relationship between the two. Come out and join us for agritourism experiences, workshops, volunteer opportunities and more.
