Sponsor a Student

Is there an aspiring farmer in your grange? Send an aspiring farmer to Farm School. Granges are encouraged to help out by sponsoring a local student. When this student returns to their home Grange they can pass on all they have learned, start a farm, and increase food security in your community. Practicum Student spaces are open for 2016.

Farm Fresh Food Drive

Here in Mendocino County, there are many around us who struggle every day to feed their families. You can help the Grange Farm School provide food for the disadvantaged in our communities. We'll devote a portion of our vegetable and fruit production to local food distribution organizations serving those less fortunate than us! Your donation supports the operating costs of our educational program while providing nourishment for our community.

We are currently moving our donation efforts to focus on the victims of the recent Valley Fire tragedy! To help us donate some of our Farm School produce to those in need, visit our campaign here!

A donation of $50 will sponsor a 10 square foot plot, $100 will sponsor a 20 square foot plot, $250 will sponsor a 50 square foot plot and $500 will sponsor a 100 square foot plot. Our growing methods optimize production so that multiple harvests are possible throughout the season. For example, a 100 square foot plot could produce 45 pounds of onions, 25 pounds of tomatoes, and 30 pounds of winter squash!

Join us in this campaign to raise funds to support the operations of the Grange Farm School while providing food to organizations like PlowShares, Mendocino County Food Banks, Senior Centers, and more.
