Bees, butterflies, the small workers that make every harvest possible. Our pollinator program teaches students why the farm doesn’t grow without them.
Peaches on the tree, squash on the vine, strawberries in June — none of it happens without the pollinators moving between blossoms, unseen and uncredited, making everything else possible.
What’s true in the bed is true in the neighborhood: nothing flourishes alone.
FoodCorps used the farm as a training lab for exactly this — pollinator lessons, harvest-data habits, the practice of noticing the systems underneath the food. The students who learn it here carry it everywhere food grows.
