This past Saturday evening we celebrated the Live Earth Farm Discovery Program with an amazing farm-to-table dinner, and thanks to more than 150 friends, volunteers, sponsors, and donors we raised over $30,000 to support farm-based nutrition education in the Pajaro Valley and beyond!

   In addition to the generous financial support we received, what made the evening truly brilliant was the generosity of spirit demonstrated by friends and families who gave of themselves to make this year's beautiful dinner on the farm a fun and delicious experience. From historians to farmers, bankers, and techies, from toddlers to teens, lifers to newbies, big businesses and small, all can be counted among those supporting our mission to improve personal, community and environmental health through growing and preparing farm fresh food. So many people are becoming invested members of our growing community, and we are very grateful.

   As we fall towards the season of giving thanks, we are all thankful to be able to provide farming education that leads to employed teenagers with meaningful work, responsible consumers who understand the impact of their food choices, and a community who appreciates the hard work it takes to get healthy food to our plates.  And, we are profoundly appreciative to all who joined us and contributed to make Saturday such a special event.
