Farm Scholarships Now Available


The Jeffrey P. Smith Farm Scholarship works to connect young people with agriculture and the natural world around them, hoping to inspire the next generation of local farmers and local food supporters.


The program’s purpose is to send children to an area farm camp to discover the inherent rewards that come from cultivating with one hands and heart.

The group is now accepting applications for 2011 and the due date is March 1, 2011.  For more information, to request an application, contact the Cheshire County conservation District at 756-2988 x 166 or Amanda.costello@nh.nacdnet.net.  More information is also available online at www.localvore.com
