It has been 4 years since I created and then stepped into the role of Education Director at Common Ground Farm.  We started with a four-week series for preschoolers and a few adult classes and have grown our programs to include summer camps, the Pioneer Living series, visits from local preschools, an ongoing field trip relationship with the Randolph School, scout troop visits, birthday parties, and a regular schedule of adult workshops. 

Your support over the years, the fact that you keep coming and keep spreading the word to friends – this has made these programs so successful and we are very grateful.

As most of you know by now, I have started nursing school this fall and will be leaving my post here at the farm.  I am very happy to announce that we have hired a wonderful new Education Director, Sember Weinman. Sember brings a wealth of experience in teaching in multiple settings, arts-based education, program administration and development, and a desire to help people of all ages connect to the earth and to the land through our farm’s mission.  Sember is taking over officially on October 1st. 

Please join me in welcoming her to our farm!
