The Farm received a generous $12,000 grant from the Summerlee Foundation to hire an Educational Outreach Coordinator. The Coordinator will collect information and create an inventory of educational institutions, civic organizations, businesses, and governmental entities that are interested in being a part of a Farm Partner Network to support the educational mission of the Farm “to tell the story of small family farms in the Texas Blackland Prairie that provided the economic foundation for the ascendance of the cotton industry and ultimately the rapid growth of the Central-North Central Texas economy and communities”.
