About the Farm
Background
Founded with a mission to adhere to the Better Theory, Better Farm has grown into a multifaceted institution dedicated to sustainability, art, and community outreach. Over the years, it has become known for its educational workshops, artist residencies, and commitment to green living. The farm offers low-cost produce through its farm stand, local fine-dining restaurants, and a CSA program.
Practices
Better Farm operates as a 100-percent solar-powered 'living lab' featuring organic gardens, alternative building structures, and rehabilitated animals. The farm emphasizes environmentally conscious living and integrates sustainability into all its endeavors. The Better Theory, which posits that every experience offers an opportunity for personal growth, underpins the farm's philosophy and practices.
The Rest
Visitors to Better Farm can engage in a variety of activities including educational programming, events, work-shares, and lodging options. The campus also supports the community through volunteer projects, certification programs, garden consultations, art installations, and farm-to-table events. It serves as a premier destination for artists and students interested in sustainable living and artistic expression.
