THE FARMING AND AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION PROGRAM WAS EXPANDED THIS YEAR TO INCLUDE A PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL NON-PROFITS TO DELIVER FRESH FOOD DIRECTLY TO FAMILIES IN NEED. WE ACCOMPLISHED THIS BY JOINING THE WEEKLY MONDAY MEALS PROGRAM WHERE CLOSE TO 100 FAMILIES CAME TO PICK UP NECESSITIES, INCLUDING OUR FARM FRESH FOOD. THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FRESH VEGETABLES AND FOOD EXCEEDED 1000 POUNDS IN THIS SECOND SEASON AND THE TOTAL FOR THE 2 SEASONS BEING CLOSE TO 2000 POUNDS OF FOOD. IN ADDITION TO THE FARMING ACTIVITIES, WE CONDUCTED TWO (2) HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION PROGRAMS, BOTH EIGHT WEEKS IN LENGTH. THIS PROGRAM TAUGHT THE STUDENTS FROM THE LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL ABOUT THE IMPORTANT PROCESSES OF GROWING FARM FRESH FOOD. THESE EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES AFFORDED STUDENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN, ACTIVATE THE LAND AND THEN EVEN VOLUNTEER IN THE SUMMER MONTHS WITH THE FARMHOUSE FARMER TO GROW AND DELIVER THE FRESH FOOD AND VEGETABLES TO LOCAL COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION SITES WHERE THEY WERE ABLE TO INTERACT WITH FAMILIES AND DELIVER FRESH FOOD.

Program 2

Expenses: $76,457

THE FARMHOUSE STUDIO WAS ACTIVATED THIS YEAR IN A VARIETY OF FASHIONS. WE CREATED A COMMERCIAL CHALLENGE THAT OFFERED AN EIGHT WEEK COURSE ON CREATING AND PRODUCING A SHORT ADVERTISEMENT FOR A LOCAL BUSINESS. THE COURSEWORK COVERED SCRIPTING, PRODUCTION, EDITING, SOUND AND MARKETING OF THE COMMERCIAL. THERE WERE 5 TEAMS OF LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS THAT PARTICIPATED IN THE COMMERCIAL CHALLENGE WITH A NY-BASED FILM PRODUCER AS THE INSTRUCTOR OF THIS MASTER CLASS. ADDITIONALLY, THE FARMHOUSE CONDUCTED SEVERAL INTERVIEWS OF STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE VARIOUS PROGRAMS AT THE FARMHOUSE, TO SHARE THEIR STORIES AND ALSO TALK ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCES, GROWTH AND LEARNINGS AT THE FARMHOUSE. THESE WERE INCREDIBLE SHORT FILMS THAT WERE EDITED AND PRODUCED BY OTHER HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, SHOWING STUDENTS THAT THEY CAN BE BOTH IN FRONT OF AND BEHIND THE CAMERA. FINALLY, ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL EXPERIENCES AT THE FARMHOUSE WAS THE EDTV FILM FESTIVAL. THE FARMHOUSE HOSTED 350 PEOPLE (STUDENTS, FAMILIES, COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND JUDGES). THERE WERE 30+ FILMS THAT WERE SCREENED AND JUDGED AT THIS FESTIVAL AND THE WINNER OF THE FESTIVAL WAS ABLE TO PREMIER THEIR SHORT FILM AT BOSTON FILM FESTIVAL, WHICH WAS A UNIQUE AND UNHEARD OF EXPERIENCE FOR A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT TO BE ENTERED INTO A PROFESSIONAL FILM FESTIVAL. THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST IMPACTFUL EVENTS AT THE FARMHOUSE

Program 3

Expenses: $50,971

IN 2023, THE FARMHOUSE PHASE 1 SOLAR SOLUTION WAS ANALYZED, DESIGNED AND IMPLEMENTED. THIS INITIATIVE PROVIDED A STRONG LEARNING OPPORTUNITY FOR LOCAL FAMILIES AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO UNDERSTAND HOW SOLAR CAN BE USED TO OFFSET CURRENT ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION. THE PHASE 1 SOLAR EFFORT PRODUCED 40% OF THE FARMHOUSE ENERGY FROM AN INSTALLATION ON ONE OF THE BUILDINGS ON THE PROPERTY. THIS EFFORT GAINED ATTENTION FROM EVERSOURCE AND IN SEPTEMBER, THE EVP, GREEN ENERGY STRATEGY AT EVERSOURCE JOINED DR. JANE GOODALL AT THE FARMHOUSE TO DISCUSS THIS INNOVATIVE SOLUTION AS A SCALABLE SOLUTION FOR COMMUNITIES AROUND THE SOUTH SHORE.
