DescriptionShelburne Farms is a nonprofit education organization, 1,400 acre working farm and National Historic Landmark. The Farm offers learning experiences and resources for educators, schools, children and families that connect people with nature and agriculture and inspire stewardship in their home communities. The Farm collaborates extensively with other regional, national and international organizations to advance Education for Sustainability and serves as a catalyst and convener for strengthening local food, forestry and energy systems. In 2011 Shelburne Farms served over 138,000 program participants and visitors. This number was about 7,000 less than the previous year due to the discontinuation of the Vermont Mozart Festival. Ongoing program outreach initiatives include Farm to School and food systems education, the Farm-Based Education Association, regional and international Education for Sustainability learning communities, and a partnership with the Burlington School District and Sustainability Academy at Lawrence Barnes School. The Sustainability Academy is the first elementary magnet school with a sustainability theme in the country. One 2011 highlight was the 5th annual Farm-Based Education Conference held at the Coach Barn in November with over 240 attendees coming from as far away as California and Italy. FBEA is a network of farmers and educators dedicated to farm-based education and providing public access to working farms. Another highlight was completion of a two-year, CDC-funded project to share best practices among statewide partners to evaluate the impact of Farm to School programming on student food choice. Two thirds of Vermonts 320 elementary schools are now engaged in some sort of Farm to School programming, connecting students, local farms and communities to serve healthy meals in school cafeterias. One finding was that Vermont high school students eat more fresh fruits and vegetables than youth from most other states. This may be related to the fact that 79% of surveyed students reported that they have met a farmer in their area.On the Farm, special grants made possible infrastructure and composting system improvements at the market garden, a second solar photovoltaic installation on the Farm Barn roof, and other major campus improvements, including structural repairs of the Old Dairy Barn, continuing reconstruction at the Shelburne House gardens and construction of energy efficient farm employee housing.Description
