Farm EventsEach fall we gather for a harvest meal. CSA members work together to create a meal from Luna Bleu's vegetables. Members gather to meet each other and the farm workers who have been growing their food all season! It is an evening of fun and great hearty food.
Educational ProgramsWe have been working with NOFA-VT FEED program to bring local produce into school cafeterias. In addition, we invite students and their teachers to come to the farm to get a better understanding of where their food comes from. We really try to go beyond the regular farm tour and cow-petting visit. We like kids (and adults) to dig right in the dirt for potatoes and carrots, or help transplant lettuce, or look for insects in the field. There is so much on the farm to discover.Since we are a working farm with a "full plate" already, we are limited in the number of students we can have at any one time or how many groups we can have in a season. Still it is an important part of our role in the community. We can also visit our local schools in the winter and do some farm related activities in the classroom.
