Ridge to Reef Farm
This week at the Ridge to Reef Sustainable Farm Institute, I have been recognized as farmer of the week! The farm also presents a weekly newsletter for the public which I was mentioned in for my first experience on the property. Here is the link if you would like to check out the newsletter but I have also attached them below: http://www.ridge2reef.org/csa.html

Kayla Sinotte: our current Ridge to Reef student, has been a great mentor for the summer camp kids! Side by side with every other man she has also been sweating in the heat of the summer sun learning how to work the fields.

Feeding the lovely chickens
“ I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the farm upon my arrival. I am a masters student at the University of South Florida studying Global Sustainability. I can’t imagine a better place to study than Ridge to Reef Farm, one of the the most practical permaculture farms in the world.
My first weekend on the farm we hosted two Slow Down Dinners with Chef Keith Weitzman. It was an incredible experience. People from the island came to the farm for a six course meal made from all organic, natural, (as much as possible) locally grown food. It was amazing to be able to share the knowledge on the farm with the people of the community. I am very excited to learn and study sustainability and permaculture design hands on for the next six weeks.
