It was gratifying, likable and, most importantly, fun. I am thankful to be learning and creating important practical skills to benefit my future self."

"The farm challenged me in ways I have not been challenged before, which further allowed me to connect with the earth in ways I have never been able to before. I loved getting dirty, I loved the science, I loved the compassion and love that imbued every seed and every animal. It opened my eyes to a new way to see the world I am nestled within."

— Sarah, 2021
