]]> Thanks to our big outreach grants from Newman’s Own Foundation and Main Street Resources, we are able to create the Compass Garden Outreach Program. In 2018, this landmark program will help 6 schools build their own gardens inspired by what they learn at The Compass Farm. 

As a school, we are thrilled to have started an education movement that has garnered national attention. As a community of social-responsibility-minded educators, we are beyond excited to share this innovative outdoor classroom experience with other schools. 

Check out the great coverage from SoRI (on newsstands today!)
