We are offering tours for classes in elementary and secondary school. Our funds are limited to offer this to the students. Would you consider making a donation to offset the price of a school tour for local youth? A donation in any amount would be appreciated. There is a line on the Organic Gardening Workshop registration form if you would like to make a donation towards a field trip. Or, a donation for this purpose may be forwarded to the Canticle Farm Office.
