We’re excited to offer new farm workshops led by our deeply knowledgeable farm manager, Ashton. These are designed to share practical skills, deepen ecological understanding, and connect people with the land and each other through hands-on, thoughtful experiences.
Ashton brings years of experience with regenerative agriculture, medicinal plants, and contemporary floral design—along with a deep passion for land-based education and hands-on learning.
