This new growing area is located on approximately 0.2 acre near the farm’s greenhouse. Taking inspiration from natural forest ecosystems and informed by permaculture and agroforestry practices, this garden integrates a variety of food-producing plants in the style of an urban food forest.

We started planting trees like paw paws, persimmons, hazelnuts, and wild plums this spring. Now, we are excited to be adding beds of herbaceous edible and pollinating plants. We invite you to join us next Wednesday, June 10, 10:00 am - noon to learn about the garden design and help us plant!

See more details and sign up to volunteer on the Point app (https://dash.pointapp.org/events/697586).

Want to learn more about the Food Forest? Meet us on the farm next Wednesday morning from 10-12 to learn about the forest and help plant herbaceous perennials. No registration required. Meet at the orange barn.

Congratulations to Gwyneth Hagerty, an AmeriCorps member serving as Seminary Hill Farm's agroecology practitioner and educator, who was recently awarded a grant from The FruitGuys to install a small "food forest" on campus. It's a method of intercropping edible plants with native perennials, which helps conserve soil, filter water, and grow food. She's planting raspberries, elderberries, persimmons, chokecherries, mushrooms and more.

Meet Elise Garber, a 2026 MTSO Master of Social Justice graduate. As part of her internship at the Madison County Board of Developmental Disabilities this spring, she is building the Madison County Accessibility Community Garden. Seminary Hill Farm provided plants toward her efforts.

A huge thank you to the team of twenty IGS Energy volunteers who supported us during IGS Energy's annual Day of Service last week.

Your service enabled us to remove approximately 400 lbs of invasive garlic mustard from our forests and to plant hundreds of vegetable seedlings in our Community Greens Field.

We could not have imagined doing so much in one day without you. Thank you!

We're always inspired by what Seminary Hill Farm and the Land Stewardship Initiative do here on campus. Take a look at what they accomplished last year, and what their goals are for 2026, in this new publication: https://www.seminaryhillfarm.org/about/year-in-review/
