Sustainable Ag Education

We believe that education should be as dynamic as the families we serve. Our Nature School runs during the typical school year calendar and serves local homeschool families through hands-on farm and nature based enrichment. Our non profit arm, Grow LEAP Foundation, offers unique learning experiences for both adults & children through on farm workshops and programs.

 

Local Food = Health

We believe that simple living helps ensure our family is not stressed and weighed down by the pressures of this life. Most people understand that stress causes disease (dis-ease) in the body. We also have a choice each day in what we eat and how we eat. Food should be local, joyful, and fuel for our bodies. We know nutrition affects our ability to maintain health, prevent disease, and support healing. Yet traditional forms of healing often treat only symptoms. Our goal at AAF is to give hope that food can actually be used to nourish the body at the cellular level so it has the ability to strengthen the immune system, reduce inflammation, and promote overall well being. Consider reading this publication titled “The Regenerative Agriculture and Human Health Nexus: Insights from Field to Body.”  Food isn’t just fuel- it can be one of most accessible and effective tools for healing and health right at our fingertips. Come grow with us and learn what it is to thrive.

Thank you for your support!

Words cannot express our gratitude to our community for all the love and support you gave during the loss of our previous farm shop Oct. 7, 2025. We only know that we could not have made it without your prayers, support, and donations. As Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give that to receive.”
