Abstract:

While living and working on a biodynamic farm for a season I found myself inspired and in love with the gifts of educational farming. When winter came and I left the farm, I decided to spend Winter Term touring small farms with education programs in New England. I visited seven farms and spent time learning about their missions, farm systems and feeling the pulse of their work. I created a sketchbook of my journey and now want to share this heart-based work with more people!
